Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Peel away the outer layers of the garlic bulb, leaving the cloves intact. Using a sharp knife, slice off the top of the bulb to expose the cloves. Place the garlic bulb on a piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle the exposed cloves with olive oil, then wrap the bulb tightly in the foil.
- Roast the garlic in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden brown.
- Once roasted, remove the garlic from the oven and let it cool slightly. Squeeze the roasted cloves out of their skins into a small bowl.
- Mash the roasted garlic cloves with a fork until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, combine the mashed roasted garlic, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Stir until well blended. Season the aioli with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
- If desired, garnish the aioli with chopped fresh herbs such as parsley or chives for added flavor and color.
- Transfer the aioli to a serving dish or airtight container. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Notes
- Roast extra garlic cloves along with the ones needed for the aioli. They're great for spreading on bread or adding to other dishes.
- For a smoother texture, use a food processor or blender to blend the aioli ingredients.
- If the aioli is too thick, thin it out with a bit of water or extra lemon juice.
- The aioli will thicken up a bit more after chilling, so keep this in mind when adjusting its consistency.
- Personalize the flavor! Feel free to add extra ingredients like a pinch of smoked paprika or a small amount of honey for a unique twist.
