Nuoc Mam Fish Sauce dip

No pictures for this one, but its pretty basic-

Need:
Fish sauce
Water
Sugar
Garlic
Thai chili peppers
Lime (optional)

Water and sugar together in a pan and make a simple syrup. Crush the garlic and chilies and put in syrup with A LOT of fish sauce. The warm simple syrup draws out the spicy and garlickyness and makes the sauce stellar for dipping. Can be made in big batches and bottled for future use too. Lime is always nice to brighten it up per meal, but is not necessary (I'll put lime on almost anything). :)
