Nam Jim Wan - Sweet Dipping Sauce

Recipe Ingredients

3 cups	711ml	Water
3 cups	594g / 20oz	Sugar
1 cup	237ml	Rice vinegar
3 tablespoons	45ml	Chinese pickled plums
3 tablespoons	45ml	Prik ki nu daeng (red birdseye chilies) - thinly sliced
2 tablespoons	30ml	Garlic - very thinly sliced
2 tablespoons	30ml	Ginger - julienned or grated
1 teaspoon	5ml	Salt

Recipe Instructions

This is a simple dipping sauce usually used with deep fried items such as spring rolls and the stuffed chicken wings I shall post shortly.

Method

Boil the water, and add the pickled plums (sometimes sold as 'salted plums'), and simmer for five minutes. Remove the plums to a food processor and puree them. Continue to boil the water, adding and dissolving the sugar, then adding the vinegar and salt. If any sugar is still undissolved, add a little more water until it dissolves.

Return the plums to the mixture, and then pour over the other ingredients in a sterilized preserving jar, and keep in a cool place for at least a week before using.
