Garlic Aioli

Jamie Oliver has a recipe for garlic aioli that sounds wonderful. However, I have yet to convince myself that it's okay to eat raw egg. I think I'd be okay with it if my boys weren't eating it, too. For now, I will use store-bought mayo (*gasp*) and make my aioli as adapted below. Enjoy!

Garlic Aioli
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • lemon juice, to taste
1. Using a mortar and pestle, smash garlic with 1/2 tsp of salt, until it's "pasty". Remove any fleshy parts that won't smash down.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together mayo, mustard and lemon juice. Add smashed garlic then sprinkle with s&p. Taste and season as necessary. ENJOY!
