2
Tablespoon

½
teaspoon
salt
⅛
teaspoon
ground ginger
⅛
teaspoon
onion powder
Instructions
To a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayo, water, ketchup, sugar, garlic powder, paprika, salt, ginger, and onion powder.
Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour for the flavors to come together.
After an hour, give the sauce a stir and serve.
Notes
Use a store brand mayo instead of name brand (Hellman's, etc.) because they will have milder flavor and lend better to this sauce.
If you're using tomato paste instead of ketchup, you may need to add more sugar for balance. Taste as you go.
Store covered in the fridge for 7-10 days.
