?There is no one specific Buddhist Nuoc Leo recipe. This dish is typically made with fish sauce, sugar, lime juice, and chilies, and can be adjusted to taste.
~- Mix the sugar with the tuong and water. Add some slices of the red chili pepper. Sprinkle with roasted peanuts.
~- Side notes: ) Roasted peanuts - Add 1/2 cup of shelled peanuts to a very hot wok and stir until the skins turn black and scorched. Transfer to a colander and cool (2-3 min). Wipe off skins.
) Tuong - Sometimes labeled "Vietnamese Soy Sauce" in the U.S. but it is actually quite different from "regular" soy sauce.
