Dijon Aioli

One night as my family and I were eating dinner, we were having chicken and as I was pouring the mayonnaise onto my plate my family looked at me in disgust. My mom started talking about how goopy it is, and that it isn't natural. I then asked, "what could we eat instead?" She replied, "I could make homemade aioli instead." Since then on we have made homemade aioli to substitute mayonnaise. I hope you enjoy my recipe for homemade aioli.

Ingredients:
1 garlic clove
1 egg
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
about a 1/4 cup olive oil (depends on how thick the aioli is)

First put the garlic, egg, dijon mustard, lemon juice, and salt into a bowl.


Use an immersion blender to mix the ingredients together, then slowly add the olive oil until the aioli is thick and all the ingredients are fully incorporated.

Finished Aioli 
You can put this aioli on so many different things, such as burgers, dipping fries into it, and even on a pizza. I made a pizza with caramelized onions, after it was cooked I topped it off with this aioli. 


I hope you enjoy!
