Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 3 medium Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by mincing the garlic cloves finely. For a smoother texture, you can also crush the garlic into a paste using the side of a knife with some salt sprinkled over it.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, minced garlic, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Start incorporating the olive oil a few drops at a time, whisking constantly, to form an emulsion. This step is crucial to achieving the creamy consistency of the aioli.
As the mixture begins to thicken, you can slowly increase the flow of olive oil, continuing to whisk vigorously, until all the oil is fully incorporated.
Season the aioli with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as necessary to suit your preference.
Transfer the garlic aioli into a serving bowl or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the Keto Classic Garlic Aioli as a dip for vegetables, a sauce for meats, or as a spread for sandwiches.
