How to Make Spring Roll Dipping Sauce Nuoc Mam
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup white vinegar, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely (3-5 minutes).
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in 2 tablespoons fish sauce.
- Add 1/4 cup shredded carrots and 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint.
- Taste and adjust seasonings: Add more fish sauce (1/2 tablespoon at a time) and cayenne pepper (a pinch at a time) to your liking.
- Allow the sauce to cool completely before serving. For extra warmth, stir in 1-2 finely chopped chili peppers and 1 tablespoon chopped peanuts while the sauce is still warm, then let cool.
