Recipe - Nuoc Cham

2 Garlic cloves, minced
One fourth cup Fresh lime juice
1 Small shallot, minced
3 tablespoon Vinegar
1 Chili, fresh seeded minced
3 tablespoon Water
2 tablespoon Sugar
1 Carrot, finely shredded
One fourth cup Fish sauce

This was developed for people who did not like the taste of fish Sauce.
Combine Garlic, shallot, Chile and Sugar in mortar and pestle and pound to
a paste. Stir in fish Sauce, lime juice, vinegar and Water. When Sugar is
completely dissolved, stir in carrot. Or you can combine all ingredients in
jar with tightfitting lid and shake until blended.
