This Spicy Mayo is a perfect dipping sauce for sandwiches, burgers, French fries and more. Easy to make and you need only simple ingredients like creamy mayo, hot sauce, lemon juice and seasoning.

It is one of the most used sauces in our family. I usually use this spicy mayo for Popeyes Chicken Sandwich, Chicken shawarma and Philly cheesesteak.

I am sure you’ve tasted it so many times in sushi restaurants or on burgers like Popeyes chicken sandwich but have never tried to make at home. So today is the day!
