Nam Jin Sauce


Nam Jin Sauce

Nam Jin sauce is of Thai origin and here's Neil's version.

Serves 1

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves garlic roughly chopped
  • 2 coriander roots washed thoroughly & roughly chopped
  • 1 long red chilli de-seeded & roughly chopped
  • 1 long wild green scud chilli finely sliced
  • 1 small red eschalot finely sliced
  • 3 ripe cherry tomatoes or 1 small vine-ripened tomato, roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup caster sugar or palm sugar
  • ¼ cup fish sauce boy brand or squid brand
  • 1 large lime juiced

Method

  1. In a mortar & pestle, pound the garlic & coriander root.
  2. Add the red and green chillies and pound further (not too much or it will be too hot).
  3. Add the tomatoes and pound until just pulped.
  4. Add the scuds, eschallots, sugar, fish sauce and lime juice, stir until mixed and the sugar has dissolved.
  5. Check that the flavours are balanced....hot, salty, sour and sweet!
