Instructions

Notes
- Thickness: To avoid making the sauce warty, add water while combining the ingredients, and pour it gently. Try adding additional mayo if you want the dish to be thicker.
- Sour taste: Use vinegar to give the sauce a sour taste. You can also add a half teaspoon of lemon juice.
- Hot taste: Try adding 1 tablespoon of harissa; it will create a taste that is really hot. It complements Boom Boom Shrimp wonderfully.
