Green Mango Chili Fish Sauce, based on chili fish sauce, has the addition of shredded green mango and lime juice. This variation makes a great universal dipping sauce or a base for Thai salad dressing.

If you ever wonder what an average Thai eats at home, and if you could peer into their windows, you would often see a grilled catfish, fried fish or dried smoked fish eaten with this Green Mango Chili Fish Sauce. A Thai living abroad like me relishes Green Mango Chili Fish Sauce whenever I can get my hand on a green mango. With a bowl of rice, fried egg and this sauce is a meal I’m content.

Recipe Ingredients:

1/4 cup shredded green mango
2 – 5 Thai chili pepper
1 – 2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/4 cup thinly sliced shallots
1/2 lime

Recipe Steps:

Peel half of green mango and leave the other half unpeeled for an easy grip while shredding. Shred the green mango with a shredder.
Slice chili peppers into thin slices. Peel and slice a shallot.
Add everything into a dipping bowl. Pour fish sauce on top. Squeeze the lime in. Top the sauce with sliced chili peppers.
Serve as a condiment with Thai food.
