Ingredients
1/2 of a small clove of garlic – peeled
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
600 ml extra virgin olive oil
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 Lemon juice
Directions
- Crush the garlic with 1 teaspoon of salt in a pestle and mortar.
- Place the egg yolk and mustard in a small bowl and whisk together until mixed, then start to add in your olive oil slowly.
- After you have blended in about a quarter of the olive oil you can add in the rest in larger portions.
- Once all the oil is in the mix, add the garlic and lemon juice and any extra flavours you choose.
- Season to taste with sea salt, fresh pepper and add in more lemon juice if required.
chefs tip:
- Try adding lemon or basil to your aioli, which goes perfectly with salads, grilled fish and roast chicken or pork, and perfect with salmon.
