Basic Aioli
Ingredients
- 6 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1/2 c pine nuts
- 3 potatoes, boiled, peeled and mashed
- juice of a lemon
- 1/4 c olive oil
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
Instructions
Yield: 2 servings. Combine the garlic and nuts in a blender or food processor and puree. Add the potatoes, and puree. Pour potato mixture into a bowl and, using a whisk, beat in the lemon juice, a bit at a time. Gradually add the olive oil in a thin stream while continuing to beat so oil combines with potato mixture. When oil has been absorbed, add the egg and beat well. Note: If you omit the raw egg, you still get a nice sauce.
