I made a half recipe of this but on tasting, decided it needed more sugar ( so I doubled it back to the original amount) and a tablespoon of fish sauce to give it that sweet, sour, hot, and salty balance that is so important in Thai food. I used rice wine vinegar, palm sugar and a little firecracker of a Thai red chilli in this too. Thanks for posting a delicious, easy to make condiment

I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom. I love to cook so long as my husband is home to clean up after me. My fav cookbooks...eh...I don't know that I have a fav persay, but of the ones I own The American Vegetarian Cookbook (Marilyn Diamond) and my Moosewood cookbooks get the most use. I get a lot of my recipes online or invent them myself :)
