Sriracha mayo blends the creamy smoothness of mayonnaise with fiery chili sauce, and in five minutes you have a spicy dip that takes plain fries up a level. A squeeze of lime brightens it, while a hint of garlic and a spoon of honey round the heat into a sweet, punchy balance. Dunk fries in it, spread it on burgers, add it to wraps, or dot it over sushi. You control the heat yourself.

Step by step process

The base

1
Put the mayonnaise in a bowl. Whisk in the chili sauce a little at a time until you have a smooth sriracha mayo with an even pink color. Stir slowly along the bottom so the sauce blends fully into the mayonnaise. Aim for a velvety texture with no streaks or bubbles.
2
Add the lime juice and press in the garlic. Soften it with a spoon of honey. Whisk everything again so the lime, garlic, and honey blend evenly. The flavor should round out. Cold mayonnaise holds a firmer structure, so work with it straight from the fridge.

Seasoning and serving

3
Taste the dip and add salt to your liking. Dial the heat up with more chili sauce. To soften it, stir in an extra spoon of mayonnaise. For a bolder sweet-and-spicy note, add a little more honey and let it rest briefly. Work the salt in at the very end so the dip does not thin out.
4
Transfer the finished dip to a small bowl. Serve it with fries, burgers, or wraps. It also works as a spicy accent for shrimp, chicken strips, and sushi. It tastes great as a sandwich spread too. You can also use it as a dip for fresh cut vegetables like carrots, celery, or bell pepper strips.
