nước mắm

Using coconut juice

  • 12oz nước dừa ( hiệu Coco Rico)
  • 4oz+ 1t đường trắng
  • 4oz+ 2T nước mắm ( hiệu Việt Hương 3 con cua)
  • 2oz+ 1T nước cốt chanh ( lime)
  • 1 củ tỏi băm nhuyễn.

Combine all ingredients

Using water

  • Smash 2 cloves of garlic,
  • squeeze the juice of one lemon or lime,
  • heat a bowl of water,
  • brown sugar
  • fish sauce

Add a lot of brown sugar to the warm water and stir until all dissolved, add the garlic and lemon/lime juice, then add just enough fish sauce to your liking.

Add sliced jalapeno and shredded carrots at the end

Fast & Easy

  • Tam’s version
  • 3 table spoons hot water
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • mix the two, then add a whole lemon
  • add 3 tbsp nuoc mam
  • stop. This is where you tast to your liking.
  • I think I ended up with 4 tbsp nuoc mam
  • chop (it matters, apparently) some garlic and chili and put them in. Chopping the garlic makes the sauce not cloudy (I made this mistake), and putting it with the chili at the end helps them float (mixing the sauce would cause them to sink)
