Alioli or garlic mayonnaise is so tasty & so easy to make at home, I also think it tastes much better than the store bought jars. I first tried alioli while on holiday in Spain. It must've been during the early 1980's while in the Costa Blanca area. At the time it was served with a meal, in a small dish (finger bowl size) & seemed to accompany every main meal. So, I guess as I was the youngest it was down to me to try it, maybe I was the adventurous one in my family........or maybe I had no choice? anyway, whatever the reason it tasted delicious! This recipe does require the use of a blender making it easier & fool proof.
Ingredients:
1 large egg
4 peeled garlic cloves
175 ml olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Place egg & garlic in blender & whizz until garlic is smooth.
2. Lower the speed & add the olive oil in a slow stream, with the motor still going until the oil has emulsified & thickened.
3. Add lemon juice & salt.
