Ready in just minutes, this versatile sauce is beautifully garnished with crushed peanuts for added texture and pairs perfectly with fresh spring rolls or even grilled meats.

In a small saucepan, combine the fish sauce, hoisin sauce, peanut butter, and warm water.
Place the saucepan over low heat and whisk the mixture until the peanut butter is fully dissolved and the sauce is smooth (about 2 minutes). Do not let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the rice vinegar, sugar, minced garlic, lime juice, and chili garlic sauce (if using). Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Transfer the sauce to a small serving bowl and let it cool to room temperature.
Sprinkle crushed peanuts on top as garnish before serving.
Serve alongside Vietnamese spring rolls and enjoy!
