CORN ON THE COB WITH LIME, FISH SAUCE AND PEANUTS



Corn on the Cob With Lime, Fish Sauce and Peanuts image

As this recipe proves, lime juice, fish sauce and sugar is a powerful combination you should commit to memory. Traditionally, those three ingredients form the base of several classic Thai and Vietnamese sauces like nuoc cham and nam pla prik. The mayonnaise here is barely noticeable, but it serves an important role in helping the flavors adhere to the corn. The cilantro is optional so no one will throw a fit.
