How to make fresh mayonnaise from scratch

Category: food

Craving the perfect creamy (dreamy) whole egg mayo? Blend, bottle, and bring the flavour to any dish with Miguel’s super speedy mayo hack.  

 

Here’s what you’ll need:  

  • Vegetable oil  

  • 1x egg (chilled)  

  • Salt  

  • Pepper 

  • 1x garlic clove (optional)  

  • Olive oil  

  • Lemon juice 

  • Blender  

 

Method 

1. Begin by adding vegetable oil to your bowl of choice, before carefully cracking the egg into it.  

2. Season the mixture by adding a pinch of salt and pepper.  

3. If you’re wanting to make the mayo into an aioli, add a glove of garlic to the mixture. 

4. Add a splash of olive oil to the mix.  

5. Blend the mix on high until it is completely combined and thickened. Hot tip: don’t stop and start the blender, this will curdle the mayo.  

6. Add a squeeze of lemon to taste if making aioli.  

7. Voila! Your perfect creamy mayo (or ailoi) is ready.
