Take your dishes to the next level with this flavorful and creamy Donkey Sauce—a bold and versatile condiment that's guaranteed to elevate your burgers, sandwiches, and snacks. Made with a rich base of mayo, the sauce is infused with the sweet nuttiness of roasted garlic, the tangy bite of Dijon mustard, and a hint of umami from Worcestershire sauce. A dash of lemon juice adds a bright zing, while paprika and black pepper bring a smoky warmth that ties it all together. Ready in just 10 minutes, this no-cook recipe requires minimal effort but delivers maximum impact. Perfect as a spread, dip, or drizzle, Donkey Sauce is a must-have addition for any meal that calls for a punch of flavor.
Gather all the ingredients for the sauce.
If the garlic is not yet roasted, roast 6 garlic cloves in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15–20 minutes until soft and caramelized. Let cool before proceeding.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, roasted garlic (mash the cloves with the back of a fork), Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir everything together until smooth and fully combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add a pinch more salt, lemon juice, or paprika based on your preference.
Transfer to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve as a burger spread, sandwich condiment, dip, or drizzle over fries. Enjoy!
