Peanut Dipping Sauce for Vietnamese Spring Rolls.?

Question

I'm trying to find the recipe for the peanut dipping sauce that Vietnamese restaurants normally offer for their spring rolls.
This sauce normally have some crushed peanuts on top. I know that the base is peanut butter, but I would like to know the rest of the ingredients that are in it.

Answer 1

This is a recipe I use for my peanut sauce...

Ingredients
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup water
2 tbsp. soy sauce
1 tbsp. brown sugar
2 tbsp. peanut or vegetable oil
2 or 3 cloves garlic, minced

Get out a bowl, blend in the peanut butter, water, soy sauce and sugar.

Get our your favorite wok or large pan, and add in the oil...heat it up real hot, then fry the garlic for a 30 seconds add the mixture in the small bowl, mix it up real good, and then poor it into whatever you want to use for a dipping bowl. And you're set. Enjoy!

FYI: If you want it spicy...add in some chili oil, or red pepper flakes...as much or as little as you like.

Answer 2

Thai Peanut Sauce:
1/2 cup unsalted roasted peanuts
1 tablespoon peanut oil, plus more to taste
2 fresh Thai chiles or other small chiles
1 1/2-inch-thick slice fresh ginger
4 garlic cloves
1/3 cup canned unsweetened coconut milk
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
4 teaspoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Pinch salt (add to taste, as fish sauce can be very salty)
1/2 cup finely minced cilantro leaves and stems(optional)

To make the peanut sauce, add the peanuts along with the peanut oil to a food processor. Blend, on high, until the peanuts form a rough paste. Add the rest of the ingredients except for the cilantro; blend until smooth. Stir in the cilantro and thin with peanut oil to taste.
Yield: 1 cup
