2
Gather the ingredients.
3
Peel and grate or crush the garlic cloves to a paste.
4
Cut the lime in half and juice it into a small mixing bowl.
5
Stir in the garlic paste.
6
Add the sugar. I did use some fancy turbinado sugar, but any sugar will work fine.
7
Add the fish sauce. Mix well. If you use a coarse sugar like I did, you may need to warm the sauce a little to get the sugar to dissolve. I just tossed the bowl in the microwave for a minute.
