Nam Phrik Ong (Thai Pork and Tomato Dip)

Cookbook | Recipes | Ingredients | Equipment | Techniques | Cookbook Disambiguation Pages | Recipes Nam phrik ong, or Thai pork and tomato dip (Thai: น้ำพริกอ่อง), is a traditional Northern Thai food of pork, tomatoes, and chilli. It is much like a Thai version of a bolognese sauce, and the name comes from combining nam phrik (hot sauce; literally "liquid chili") and ong. Ong is used only for identifying the dish, and has no special meaning. The tomatoes and chilli colour the sauce orange, and the dish tastes sour, salty, and slightly hot. Some variations of the dish can be a little sweet, depending on preference. While tomatoes and pork are the essential main ingredients of Nam Phrik Ong, people may add other spices. The spices are not specific, and vary widely.
