Instructions

Cut up the tart apples into thin but wide slices. Cutting them in a flat and thin shape so you can use the slices like a spoon to scoop up the sauce into your mouth.
Chop the shallot into thin slices.
Mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl, and stir well until the sugar dissolves mostly. Leave some of the sugar crystals for texture when dipping the fruit in.
Use a piece of fruit to taste the flavors. Adjust with sugar, lime juice, and fish sauce until your taste buds are happy. Stir one more time before serving.
Dip the apple slices or any of your favorite crispy fruit and scoop up the golden brown sauce to enjoy all the flavor explosions in your mouth! Share this with a friend or family member, and have some ice water ready to cool off your mouth. Enjoy

Notes

If you don't have dried chili flakes, use whole dried chilies. Ground it into large flakes in a spice or clean coffee grinder.
You can adjust the spiciness level as needed with this recipe. Thai people, especially my family, LOVE it at level 15, whereas I'm on moderate heat, so adjust as needed.
Make two quick bowls if necessary if your group has different spice levels. Add the chili flakes last if that's the case for easy adjustment.
To keep the tart fruit from turning brown, soak it in salt water. Just add a tablespoon.
