  2. 2 Marinate with fish sauce, sugar, pepper, garlic, and crushed coriander roots.
  3. 3 Sun-dry for 6 hours until the outside is slightly dry but the inside is still soft; do not dry until it is completely hard.
  4. 4 Deep-fry for 4 minutes until golden brown on the edges and juicy on the inside.
  5. 5 Remove from the oil, drain, and dip in spicy and sour jaew sauce.
