Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 Egg yolks
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup Avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves or crush them into a paste using a mortar and pestle.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, minced garlic, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard until smooth and well combined.
Starting very slowly, drizzle a few drops of avocado oil into the egg mixture while whisking continuously. Ensure the oil is fully incorporated before adding more.
Gradually increase the amount of oil added as the mixture begins to thicken and emulsify. Continue whisking and adding oil until it is completely incorporated and the aioli has a creamy, thick texture.
Add the smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to the aioli. Whisk until the spices are evenly distributed and the aioli has a uniform color.
Taste the aioli and adjust the seasoning, if necessary, by adding more salt, lemon juice, or cayenne for additional heat.
Transfer the aioli to a serving bowl or airtight container. Use immediately or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
