Spicy sriracha mayonnaise

'Sriracha Mayo' is the secret weapon of modern street food cuisine. The meeting of two iconic sauces: the creaminess of French-origin mayonnaise tames the fiery heat of Thai sriracha, while garlic and lemon bring them together. The result is a universal dip that elevates even the simplest chips to a gourmet dish.

Instructions

1

In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise and sriracha sauce until smooth.

Tip: You can play with the amount of sriracha: start with less and add more after tasting if you can handle the heat.
2

Grate the garlic as finely as possible into the mixture, add the lemon juice, sugar, and salt. Stir until the sugar granules have completely dissolved.

Tip: The acidity of the lemon juice 'cuts through' the richness of the mayonnaise, making the overall effect fresher.
3

Place in the fridge for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Tip: This resting time is crucial: the flavours (especially the garlic) dissolve and permeate the fatty medium during this time.

Recipe FAQ

Because we create an acidic environment with the lemon, it stays good in the fridge for up to 1-2 weeks in an airtight container.
