LOBO Nam Prik Kapi Sauce 220ml

LOBO Nam Prik Kapi Sauce (น้ำพริกกะปิ โลโบ, nam phrik ka-pi loo-boo) is a ready-to-use shrimp paste chilli sauce from LOBO based on nam prik kapi (น้ำพริกกะปิ) — one of the most fundamental and beloved dipping sauces in Thai cuisine. Nam prik kapi is a pungent, bold, and intensely savoury chilli paste made from fermented shrimp paste (kapi, กะปิ), fresh chilli, garlic, lime juice, and fish sauce. It is one of the oldest and most deeply rooted condiments in Thai cooking, traditionally served as the centrepiece of a Thai rice meal alongside steamed rice, fresh and blanched vegetables, fried mackerel (pla thu thot, ปลาทูทอด), and other accompaniments. The LOBO version provides this characteristic nam prik kapi flavour profile in a convenient ready-to-use bottle, eliminating the need to pound and blend the individual ingredients using a mortar and pestle. The 220 ml bottle is suited to multiple servings.
