Tips

For extra creaminess, use a high-quality vegan mayo with a smooth texture.
Taste the sauce before serving and adjust the sweetness or spiciness according to your preference by adding more maple syrup or Sriracha.
If you want a thinner consistency, add a little water or lime juice to loosen up the sauce.

Variations and Substitutions

Mayo: You can substitute the vegan mayo with regular mayo or a dairy-free yogurt for a different texture.
Sriracha: For a milder sauce, use a less spicy chili paste or hot sauce, or reduce the amount of Sriracha.
Sweet Chili Sauce: If you don’t have sweet chili sauce, you can use a combination of honey and soy sauce for a similar flavor.
Maple Syrup: Agave syrup or brown sugar can be used in place of maple syrup for a different sweetness profile.
