📖 The Story Behind This Dish

A creative dish seasoning fries, loved in Belgium and America, with Thai fish sauce and lemon instead of salt. Tossing them hot with fish sauce adds toasty savoriness and lemon adds freshness, so you can't stop reaching for more. A drinking snack pared down to ingredients you'll often find in the fridge or cupboard.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On a weekend night, hot fries are piled in a paper-lined basket, lemon is squeezed over, and they're enjoyed with cold beer.
