Our take
CleanPlate reviewTandoori sauce led by water and sunflower oil
Wingreens Farms Tandoori Mayo is a 180 g pouch of tandoori-flavoured mayo-style sauce: water, refined sunflower oil (24%), sugar, thickeners, iodised salt, milk solids and spices. The pack front says Tandoori Mayo and the back panel calls it Tandoori Sauce, with 12 servings of 15 g.
CleanPlate scores it EC4. The E for nutrition is low: almost no credited protein, fibre or micronutrients per 100 g. The C for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by refined sunflower oil, sugar and milk solids), with additives that cost points: hydroxypropyl distarch phosphate and xanthan gum. The 4 for risk comes mainly from sodium (654 mg per 100 g) and trans fat (0.5 g per 100 g).

A closer look
Does the label add up?
Water, refined sunflower oil (24%), sugar, thickeners (INS 1442 and INS 415), iodised salt, milk solids, mixed spices, acidity regulators (INS 260, INS 270, INS 330), mustard powder, lemon juice, preservatives (INS 202, INS 211), antioxidant (INS 386) and natural flavouring substances; only the oil share is printed.
Per 100 g: 281 kcal, 24.4 g fat of which 2.2 g saturated, 8.1 g sugar of which 8.1 g added, 1 g protein, 654 mg sodium. Only the sunflower oil (24%) has a printed share; the spices, mustard, lemon juice and milk solids are assumed to be a few percent, so the score is provisional. The Blinkit listing says cholesterol free and no trans fat, but the pack panel prints 0.31 mg of cholesterol and 0.5 g of trans fat per 100 g, and the panel is used. Net 180 g.

Common misconceptions
Myth: "A tandoori mayo is the light option"
It prints 24.4 g of fat and 281 kcal per 100 g, mostly the sunflower oil.
Myth: "No cholesterol means no concern"
The panel prints 0.31 mg of cholesterol and 0.5 g of trans fat per 100 g, and sodium is the bigger issue.
