Nuoc Leo - Vietnamese Peanut Sauce

This is the extra easy, cheaters version of Nuoc Leo. The real version requires a lot more ingredients, cooking, chopping, etc. And it tastes the same. Swear.

Inspired by a recipe in The Foods of Vietnam by Nicole Routhier.

Use as a dipping sauce for fresh Summer Rolls.

*I just use chunky peanut butter, but if you only have smooth, garnish the top of the sauce with chopped peanuts.

  • 2/3 c hoisin sauce
  • 1/3 c peanut butter
  • 1 tsp hot sauce (preferably Sriratcha)
  • 1/4 c chopped peanuts*

Mix all ingredients together. The chopped peanuts & hot sauce can be mixed in or just added to the top of the hoisin/peanut butter combination as a garnish to be mixed at the table by each diner.

Yield: 1 cup.

Keywords: Easy, Condiment, Sauce, Southeast Asian
