This is a very quick and easy salad NO FAT dressing that can be made quickly and will last up to a week in the refrigerator. I haven't seen it for sale in a bottle in the Asian market - because every family has their own variation, so feel free to experiment. It can be also used as a dipping sauce for fried foods.

Ingredients

2 oz simple syrup (less if you feel it is too sweet)

1 oz rice vinegar

1 oz lemon juice

2 oz fish sauce (choose a brand lower in salt)

2 oz water

1 clove crushed garlic

1 tsp siracha chili sauce or 2 crushed Thai chilis ( more if you want it spicier)

If you want a vegetarian alternative, substitute light soy sauce for the fish sauce. For an even lower calorie dressing reduce amount of sugar.

Measure the ingredients into a 8 oz jar. Put on the lid and shake. Keep in refrigerator until ready for use.
