Harissa Mayo Recipe
Description
The Harissa Mayo Recipe combines half a cup of mayonnaise with two tablespoons of harissa, a North African chili paste known for its smoky heat. Garlic powder adds depth without overpowering, and a pinch of sea salt enhances the overall flavor. Mixing these ingredients until smooth produces a creamy sauce that is both spicy and rich.
The texture is smooth and spreadable, perfect for sandwiches or as a dip. The harissa does not dominate but provides a warm, aromatic kick that is balanced by the mayonnaise's creaminess. It can be used right away or stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
This sauce pairs well with grilled or roasted foods, adding a subtle heat and flavor contrast. Its shelf life and ease of preparation make it a convenient staple for home cooks wanting to elevate simple meals with a spicy twist.

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt sea salt
Instructions
