30-Second Homemade Aioli
My homemade aioli is thick, rich, and super garlicky ~ anyone can make this no fail recipe in 30 seconds. But seriously, you're friends will think you went to culinary school!
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup olive oil Note: use extra virgin olive oil for a more pronounced olive oil flavor
- 1 large egg at room temperature; Note: pasteurized eggs for safety, safe to eat raw
- 4 cloves garlic peeled
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- salt pinch, or to taste
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a wide mouthed jar that will just fit the head of your immersion blender. Do not use a bowl or other wider container for this, it's important to use a vessel that just fits your immersion blender.
- Put the head of the immersion blender at the bottom of the jar, turn it on. Keep the head of the blender at the bottom of the jar until your aioli starts to emulsify, then gently move it up and down and around until the entire mixture is emulsified and quite thick. That's it!
- Give your aioli a stir and taste to see if you'd like to adjust the salt or lemon juice.
- Keep it tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to a week. The aioli will thicken further as it chills.
