Aioli is the perfect garlicy complement to any side dish or sandwich.
Ingredients
- 1–4 cloves garlic
- 1 egg
- 1 pinch salt
- ½ lemon
- Extra-virgin olive oil or a neutral oil such as sunflower oil
Preparation
Mince garlic. Combine egg, salt and lemon juice in a bowl if using an immersion blender, or in a food processor. Add dash of oil of your choice. Blend the mix as you slowly pour in a thin stream of oil. The emulsion will begin to form and will thicken as you slowly add more oil. When the aioli is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon without running, stop blending and taste. Add salt if necessary. Add in more garlic and lemon to taste. Will keep for 3–5 days in the fridge.
