Mayonnaise

Helmann's Real Mayonnaise

Mayonnaise, a keto food staple that is made of egg yolks, oil and an acid (usually vinegar or lemon juice). It’s naturally low in carbs and high in good fat. Low-calorie versions do exist that replace some of the naturally occurring fat with sugar, as such they they tend to be higher in carbs.

Sriracha Sauce

Flying Goose Sriracha Hot Chilli Sauce

Sriracha is a type of hot sauce made from chilli peppers, vinegar, garlic, sugar and salt. It’s popular in Asian cuisine and can be found in most UK stores in the Asian and world food aisles.

Optional ingredients

Sweeteners

It’s entirely optional in this recipe to add some sweetener. This helps counteract the spicy kick and produce a more sweet & spicy flavour. However, some people prefer the more savoury taste, which of course is fine so just omit this ingredient.

If you do want to add some sweetness then any of the below keto-friendly sweeteners can be used. You can adjust the quantity based on your sweetness preference.

  • Erythritol – most common keto sweetener. One to two teaspoons is usually just about right. It does have a cooling effect which some might not like. If so, try a different sweetener.
  • Stevia – add a couple of drops to start off with.
  • Sucralose – sold in both liquid or powdered form. Add a tiny amount as it is very sweet.
  • Monk Fruit Extract – not that popular in the UK and normally sold as a blend. Add a teaspoon at a time.

Garlic

Some Sriracha brands already add garlic to their sauce. If yours doesn’t then try adding some finely grated garlic to your keto sriracha mayo.
