Units
- 1/2 cup mayo or vegan mayo
- 1–2 tablespoons Sriracha or Sambal Oelek or Garlic Chili Sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce or gluten-free liquid aminos
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional, see notes)
- 2–3 teaspoons maple syrup (or sub sugar, brown sugar or coconut sugar)
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon ginger paste, or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- water to loosen, optional
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a small bowl.
- Whisk to combine.
- Add water for a looser consistency, a teaspoon at a time.
