DIY sriracha mayo

Some people love to drizzle sriracha mayo over poke bowls. Here’s how to make it: Simply combine 1 Tbsp (15 mL) sriracha sauce with 3 Tbsp (45 mL) mayo and a little water or lime juice just to make it pourable. Stir well and transfer to a squeeze tube or a little jug with a pour spout and drizzle over poke.
