Full recipe with detailed steps in the recipe card at the end of this post.

The base of the sauce is mayonnaise. We’re using about 120ml (1/2 a cup) – this will serve 6 people.
Then we’re basically flavouring the mayonnaise with the addition of 2 tbsp of sweet chilli sauce (use your favourite brand), 1 tbsp of sriracha (you can use hot sauce – such as Franks or Tabasco if you prefer) and 1 tsp of honey, for a slight touch of sweetness.

Mix it all together, then serve.
