sriracha mayo ingredients
  • Sriracha Chili Sauce: This spicy sauce helps to add heat and flavor. Huy Fong Sriracha is my personal recommendation. You can easily find sriracha sauce in a grocery store in the condiment aisle, or Asian food aisle. If you don’t have any sriracha on hand, Frank’s Red Hot, Tabasco sauce, or Sambal Oelek would be the best substitute for this recipe. The spice level and consistency of your hot sauce may vary, so feel free to add based on your preference.
  • Mayo: A full fat, good quality regular mayo such as Best Foods or Hellman’s, works best for this recipe. However, avocado oil, vegan or light mayonnaise will all work fine.
  • Lemon Juice: Freshly squeezed lemon/lime juice helps to balance out the flavors.
  • Garlic: One fresh garlic clove minced or crushed. You can also use ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder.
  • Sweetener: Liquid sweetener is optional. However, If you like spicy sweet flavors, you can add maple syrup, honey, or agave.

How to Make Sriracha Mayo

Add mayo, sriracha, garlic, lemon juice, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Whisk it all together until smooth and well combined.
