Ingredients For spanish alioli

  • 3 clove
    garlic, up to 4 cloves
  • 2/3 c
    olive oil, up to 3/4c
  • 1
    egg yolk
  • salt, to taste
  • 1 tsp
    fresh lemon juice

How To Make spanish alioli

  • 1
    Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
  • 2
    Place the minced garlic into a mortar. Using the pestle, begin to pound the minced garlic until it is well-mashed.
  • 3
    Add the egg yolk and salt into the bowl with the mashed garlic. Stir well.
  • 4
    Very slowly, add only a little bit of oil at a time, stirring constantly. Be sure to go slowly so that the garlic and oil have a chance to blend well.
  • 5
    Once the mixture begins to thicken, add the lemon juice. The resulting texture should be a creamy, smooth mayonnaise.
  • 6
    Refrigerate the mixture.
  • 7
    NOTE: If you do not have a mortar and pestle or are pressed for time, combine all ingredients in a small- or medium-sized bowl, and use a hand mixer. Keep the mixer steady and pressed to the bottom of the bowl at first, and slowly let it come up to fluff the mixture as the mixture thickens.

    This will keep in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
