Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 30 grams Fresh cilantro leaves (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh coriander seeds (toasted and ground)
- 120 milliliters Olive oil
- 120 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 small Garlic clove (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Place the egg yolk in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Use a whisk or an immersion blender to beat the yolk until it becomes smooth and slightly thickened.
In a separate container, combine the olive oil and vegetable oil. Set this aside for gradual incorporation.
While whisking the egg yolk continuously, begin adding the oil mixture very slowly—just a few drops at a time. Once the emulsion forms and starts to thicken, you can gradually pour the oil in a thin, steady stream, continuing to whisk vigorously.
After all the oil is incorporated and the mayonnaise is thickened, stir in the lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk until well combined.
In a small food processor (or using a mortar and pestle), blend the fresh cilantro leaves and toasted coriander seeds with 1 tablespoon of water until you achieve a smooth paste.
Fold the cilantro-coriander paste into the mayonnaise mixture, whisking gently to evenly distribute the flavors.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more lime juice, salt, or pepper as needed.
Transfer the coriander cilantro mayonnaise to an airtight jar or container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
