     1/2  Cup           rice wine vinegar
     1/4  Cup           white wine vinegar
     1/2  Cup           light corn syrup
   2 1/2  Tablespoons   fish sauce (Nuoe Mam)
   6      Medium        garlic cloves -- peeled

   2      Tablespoons   sugar

In a non-aluminum saucepan, combine the vinegars, corn syrup, fish sauce
along with four tablespoons of water. Bring to a boil and stir. Remove from
heat and let mixture cool to room temperature. In a food processor, combine
the garlic, chilis and sugar and quickly
puree. Add the cooled syrup and process in one or two bursts just to
combine. Add basil and briefly process until basil is minced. Store in a
covered container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
