Sriracha Mayo

This simple combination looks relatively mundane, but I assure you it will become a staple in your refrigerator. Besides being beyond easy to make, it is extremely versatile and will jazz up any tired old sandwich. Try it in egg salad, on a burger, or as a dip for fries, or make your own spicy tuna rolls at home!

Recipe information

  • Yield

    makes about 1 cup

Ingredients

2/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup Sriracha
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice, or more to taste

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a medium bowl, mix together all of the ingredients. Feel free to adjust the amount of lime juice to bring the thickness to your liking. Refrigerate promptly. Store, refrigerated, in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Use as a spread or dipping sauce for your favorite recipes that call for mayonnaise.

  2. VARIATION: Sriracha Aïoli

    Step 2

    Make a garlic paste by placing one clove of garlic in a mortar and pestle with a pinch of kosher salt. Once a smooth paste has formed, mix into your Sriracha Mayo for an extra garlicky kick!
