Bun Cha (Dipping) Sauce (Vietnamese)

If you have ever been to a Vietnamese restaurant, and order spring rolls or entree and they bring you an almost-clear sauce of yumminess? My friend Jonathan and I just went to a restaurant recently, and his dish even had this sauce poured over it. It's light and could go with anything such as the spring rolls or just noodles.  The grilled pork meatballs dipped too were amazing!
