Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Place the potato cubes in a medium saucepan and fill with enough water to cover them by about an inch.
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and let simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and let them cool to room temperature.
Once cooled, transfer the potatoes to a food processor or blender. Add the egg yolk, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard.
Blend until smooth and fully combined.
With the processor running, slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil to create an emulsion, resulting in a creamy, thick texture.
Add the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Blend again briefly to incorporate the seasonings evenly.
Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary, by adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to your preference.
Transfer the Maionese de Batata to a serving dish and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to enhance the flavors.
