Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Low-fat mayonnaise
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Hot sauce (e.g., sriracha or your choice)
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the fresh garlic cloves, or use a garlic press for a smoother paste.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the low-fat mayonnaise, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, and hot sauce.
Sprinkle in the smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and ground black pepper.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the aioli is smooth and all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
If the aioli is too thick for your preference, add water 1 teaspoon at a time and whisk until the desired consistency is reached.
Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed, adding more hot sauce for extra spice or more lemon juice for additional tanginess.
Transfer the aioli to a small serving bowl or airtight container for storage.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together for a more pronounced taste.
