About the Recipe
This sauce is a rich and luscious sauce that is great as a mayonnaise replacement, a veggie dip or a condiment for burgers. Oil and dairy are not missed in this recipe.
Coleslaw is a typical side served with Nigerian dishes. I replaced the mayonnaise-base sauce with this chili lime creme sauce and it was a game-changer.
