- 1 tablespoon Fresh lime juice
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, finely grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon Fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Water

Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes to the mixture. Stir well to combine the flavors.
Pour in the water to slightly dilute the sauce and create a balanced consistency. Mix thoroughly.
If desired, add sesame oil for extra depth of flavor, and stir to incorporate.
Finally, fold in the freshly chopped cilantro for a bright and aromatic finish.
Transfer the sauce to a serving bowl or airtight container. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
