Recipe for Spicy Mayo (3 Ingredients, 1 Minute)

This recipe for spicy mayo is creamy, tangy, and perfectly spicy with just 3 simple ingredients. Ready in 1 minute and better than store bought!

Prep Time 1

Total Time 1

Servings Cup

Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise homemade or store bought
¼ cup sriracha hot chili sauce
juice of 1 lime

Instructions

In a bowl, add the mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, and freshly squeezed lime juice.
Using a spoon, fork, or whisk, stir until well combined. Use immediately or store in an airtight container or jar.

Notes

Use a good quality mayonnaise for the creamiest texture and best flavour. Since there are only 3 ingredients, it really makes a difference.

Fresh lime juice gives this spicy mayo its bright, tangy flavour. Bottled lime juice works in a pinch, but fresh tastes noticeably better.

Start with less sriracha if you’re sensitive to spice. You can always add more after tasting.

Store spicy mayo in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks if using homemade mayo or about 1 month if using store bought mayonnaise. Give it a quick stir before serving.

Want to switch things up? Try adding a little sesame oil, honey, or garlic powder for extra flavour.
