1. Shrimp Chili Dip (นำ้พริกกุ้งสด)

“Nam Prik Goong Sot”

Nam prik goong, or “Shrimp Chili Dip” is very similar to the Central Thai-style dish of nam prik ga-pi, but here we are making a recipe that can be useful as an entire dish on its own (whereas its normally just a dipping sauce).

The Southern style recipe uses more roughly cut ingredients (instead of finely mashing them), and also dry roasts the shrimp paste (Ga-pi) on its own before crumbling it into the mixing bowl.

Shrimp Chili Dip (นำ้พริกกุ้งสด) or “nam prik goong sot,” is a popular Southern Thai dish that is enjoyed all throughout the country of Thailand as well.

All its ingredients are hand chopped, which is a style common in southern Thailand. This type of chili dip does not require the use of a mortar and pestle.

When cooking Thai food, try and always use the most fresh and highest quality vegetable ingredients you can find.
