Aīoli anyone?!!

I first tasted aīoli In Kensington Gardens. I was on a posh picnic outing and the main dish was prawns. Simply served with bread and lots of aoìli! It was delicious and nothing like anything I had tasted before! The secret is make it at home a few hours before serving and keep it cool. It is so easy to make. Here is my recipe:

Ingredients (6 servings)

10 garlic cloves
2 egg yokes
Juice of 1 lemon
250 ml olive oil
1 Teaspoon of Dijon mustard.

Method

Peel the garlic and blend in a blender or mortar. Slowly add all the other ingredients. Aìoli goes great with prawns and other seafood but you can include it with so many dishes and salads.
