Ingredients
- 1 egg whole
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 1/4 cup olive oil
Instructions
- Add the egg, garlic, lemon juice, mustard and salt to the bowl of a food processor and blend until fully combined. You can also crush the garlic in advance.
- With the food processor still running, very slowly, add in first the canola oil then the olive oil in a very thin stream. The aioli will come together and will be creamy. It should take you about 2 to 3 minutes to add all the oil to the mixture while the food processor is running.
- Transfer to a container and refrigerate for up to one week.
Notes
- Instead of canola oil, you can use vegetable oil, avocado oil or other neutral flavor oils.
- The garlic you're using should be young and shouldn't have the green germ in the middle since the germ would make the sauce bitter.
- Make sure you're using fresh garlic cloves and not garlic powder or packaged minced garlic for this recipe. That fresh garlic flavor is what this garlic aioli is all about.
- this classic Spanish sauce usually keeps for up to one week in the fridge. To store alioli, transfer it to a container and refrigerate. I don't recommend freezing this condiment.
Other variations of this sauce are:
Chipotle spicy: Add 1 tsp chipotle powder. Cilantro lime: Use lime instead of lemon and add some chopped cilantro once aioli is ready. Saffron aioli: Add a pinch of powdered saffron to the sauce. Paprika: Add 1/2 tsp smoked paprika to the mixture before adding the oils.
