      Yield: 4 servings

      1    Garlic clove minced
    1/4 ts Pepper flakes red, crushed

      2 ts Sugar
      1 ts Lime peel minced
      2 ts Lime juice
      3 tb Water

  Increase the amount of red pepper flakes to suit
  taste. Combine garlic, lime peel, and red pepper
  flakes; then add lime juice, fish sauce, water, and
  sugar. Whisk until all ingredients are blended and
  sugar is dissolved.

  Vietnamese sister-in-law and I even became fond of it
  myself served on vegetables, meats and fish.
