Caramelize peanuts with sweet sauce
When the mixture of fish sauce and sugar in the pan boils, add the roasted peanuts and increase the heat, stirring constantly so that the seasoning can easily penetrate the peanuts.
Continue to caramelize the peanuts until the fish sauce and sugar mixture thickens and coats the peanuts evenly, then turn off the heat and let it cool.
Finally, put the caramelized peanuts into a jar, seal tightly, and they can be used for about a week.
