Notes
- You can also use olive oil in this recipe.
- Try my recipe for avocado oil mayonnaise!
- Start with 1/2 a teaspoon of sriracha and add more to fit your spice preference.
- This is NOT a thick stir-fry sauce. If you would like the sauce to be thicker, combine one tablespoon of water with one tablespoon of arrowroot powder or cornstarch and add to the sauce recipe.
