Kimchi mayo

This kimchi aioli recipe combines the rich, savory flavors of spicy fermented cabbage or radish with the creamy texture of mayonnaise, creating a mouth-watering addition to burgers, sandwiches, fries, and more.

Use this flavorful, kimchi mayo to elevate your favorite dishes with a hit of spicy, umami flavor! You have 2 options: use prepared mayo for a quicker option or make the mayo from scratch.

This kimchi mayo is tangy, spicy, creamy, and an irresistibly versatile sauce to use on tacos, burritos, rice bowls and more!

When we want the flavors of Korean bulgogi (grilled marinated beef) and the convenient outdoor grilling method of a burger, there's an easy solution: combine them. By sticking with a classic burger patty, glazing it with a flavorful sauce, and stacking it with spicy kimchi mayo and pickled daikon radish, you can keep the best of both worlds without offending culinary purists.

I love mayonnaise solo but it can be even more versatile and zingy when spiced up with something like kimchi. Kimchi adds a slight heat, not overwhelming, that really links up beautifully with the eggy notes in mayonnaise. Use this on burgers, grilled chicken, fried eggs, a BLT, roasted vegetables, cabbage slaw or a chopped vegetable salad. I make this and keep it, covered, in the door of my fridge when I need some variety or a healthy boost of flavor from an unusual place. Don’t want any…

These kimchi fritters are little balls of crispy, spicy joy! If you don’t want to deep-fry them you can pan fry them, as small pancakes. This recipe is gluten-free as well as vegan, but you can use regular flour if you prefer. The 'sprunion' mayo is made from the tops of spring onions which are often discarded; a great way to minimise waste.
