Calories: 80kcal
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 to 2 tablespoons sambal oelek start with 1 tbsp for medium heat
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard optional but recommended
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar or white vinegar or lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon sugar or honey optional, helps round edges
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt to taste start with a pinch
Whisk everything together in a bowl until smooth.
Taste and adjust - More sambal for heat; More ketchup for sweetness/body; More vinegar/lemon for tang.
Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes (better after a few hours).
- Serving: Serve with crispy French fries, burgers, wraps, kebabs, or any fried foods.
- Harissa Option: Swap the sambal with harissa for deeper and more complex flavor. Sambal oelek brings brighter and more chili-forward heat.
