Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup Low-fat mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Peel the garlic cloves and place them in a mortar. Use a pestle to crush the garlic into a fine paste. Alternatively, you can mince the garlic finely using a knife and then press it into a paste using the flat side of the blade.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the garlic paste, low-fat mayonnaise, and plain Greek yogurt. Stir until well combined.
Add the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the bowl. Whisk all ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Taste the aioli and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice to your taste preference.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld together.
Serve as a dipping sauce, spread, or condiment as desired. Store any leftover aioli in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
