Nam phrik, a type of spicy dip popular in Thailand, comes in infinite variations thanks to the country's many autonomous regions, each with its own unique set of ingredients and cooking techniques. The smoked shrimp that gives this dish its name is combined with other ingredients such as shrimp paste, fresh chiles, lime juice, sugar, and more. The entrée, like its counterparts abroad, is accompanied by a buffet of fresh or par-boiled vegetables and herbs.
