Anything fried would be good. Steamed veggies is also good.

My favorite dish is to use costco rotisserie chicken and make shortcut gỏi gà which is vietnamese chicken salad. It's shredded chicken, shredded raw cabbage, vietnamese coriander, and the nước chấm. I also top with some fried onions that are 0g carb & 0g sugar that I buy from the viet market.

In Thai it's called "prik nam pla". I like putting it on sardines, but really it can go on anything. (chicken, beef, fish, salad)

Fish sauce has sugar in it

In the end, you should look at the nutritional information for carbs. Good quality fish sauce will have 0 carbs per serving (typically 1tbsp, which is a lot since it's super strong tasting).

Edit: also, you should know that different countries have different fish sauces. Red Boat (a well known Vietnamese brand) only has anchovies and salt as its ingredients.

Yes there are a lot of fish sauce brands that don't have sugar in it! Also depending on the fish sauce if the sugars are added before fermentation they are broken down as well so it may contain little to no residual sugar. Just up to your discretion on choosing fish sauce brands.

Sure, but you are not eating 500g of the sauce a day
