Recipe FAQs
Yes, substitute regular mayo with plant-based mayo (we love Hellmann’s Vegan Mayo). Instead of honey, you can sweeten the dip with some agave nectar or maple syrup. Also, make sure that the sriracha sauce that you use does not contain any animal ingredients.
Because fresh coriander is used in this mayo dip, we don’t recommend keeping it for longer than 2 days. Whilst it won’t go bad, it will certainly lose its appeal, as the herbs will wilt.
