- In a separate small bowl, whisk together fish sauce, rice vinegar, lime juice, sugar, garlic, chili paste, and sesame oil until the sugar is dissolved.
- Pour the dressing over the cucumber mixture and toss gently to coat.
- Add the cilantro and mint, and toss again.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more chili paste for extra heat, or more sugar for sweetness.
- Serve immediately or chill for later. The flavors will meld beautifully if you chill it for at least 30 minutes.
