Although Thai dishes are characteristically elegant and complex, there are many that are surprisingly simple, as in this recipe. Here is a quick and easy treat that relies upon one of my favourite Thai dipping sauces – nam prik pla: fish sauce, chillies, lime juice and sugar. Although it contains red chillies, this dipping sauce, unlike the red curry sauce, enlivens but does not challenge the distinctive taste of the prawns.
