Vegan Spicy Coconut Almond Sauce
This is one of those sauces I spun together just looking around the kitchen, while waiting for a batch of vegan chicken to bake in the oven. It is so simple, yet so flavorful and good I had to share it with you.
We dip our Avocado Shiitake Spring Rolls in it all the time:
Many of you know how much I love my sriracha. You may recall when this happened:
I still use that sriracha sprayer. Hint: if you want to adapt your own sriracha bottle, find a large sprayer, like from a gardening store. Normal spray bottles are most likely too small. Just sharing what I have learned... in the fun of having sriracha spray-ability.
Back to this sauce - a simple sauce that whisks together in minutes, it is creamy and nutty and spicy warm - all kinds of flavor layers going on.
If you are a spicy hot sauce fan, please try this. Then enjoy it with chick-quin. over pasta. with salad rolls. as a veggie dip. as a veggie sauce. over popcorn. under a rice bowl. with a spoon...

As a sriracha fein myself, I am incredibly excited to try this flavor combo. Love the idea of adding coconut milk and lime juice! Yum 🙂
Cara says
haha, love the sriracha sprayer idea!! And the sound of this sauce, of course 🙂
Heather @ Better With Veggies says
I want this on popcorn - yum!
Kath (My Funny Little Life) says
Ooooohhhh *_*
Eileen says
This sounds like the perfect sauce for summer rolls! I have never mastered the art of a decent dipping sauce--usually everything gets overwhelmed with too much soy sauce. So I'm extra excited to try this one out!
Also, sriracha spray?? ZOMG.
JD says
This sauce looks so good for summer BBQ everything. If it's good enough maybe the sauce will get it's own spray bottle for marinating on the grill, hmmm....
Eileen, if you're talking about a dipping sauce for gyoza/potstickers, I find the easiest/yummiest dip is put soy sauce in a thin saucer (this is important, it needs to spread out and not be deep) and add two-three drops of sesame oil. Try it, and add more to taste (sesame oil is very strong so you only need a little bit). The saucer lets teh oil spread out on top of the soy sauce, and it's my favourite dipping sauce ever! It's too thin for much else though :/

I love the sprayer idea! My son LOVE that hot sauce, I always get the hugest one they have at the store
Great idea for a dipping sauce!
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table says
I need a strange but good invention edition because a sriracha sprayer belongs there. I'm off to Home Depot later. And it's right next door to whole foods. It's going to be a good night.
Allie says
Sriracha! If that stuff is involved, I'll be happy.
Sarena (The Non-Dairy Queen) says
This is pure genius! The sauce and the spray bottle! Both will be happening here! That flavor combination sounds like heaven!
Heather (Where's the Beach) says
Oh friend, you had me at the sriracha! Love this one. I've been adding sriracha to a hummnut sauce to go over zucchini or brussels sprouts. MMMM Love the addition of the lime in this one. I bet it really makes the flavors pop out.
