Aioli - Garlic Mayo

Aioli, allioli, or aïoli is a garlic sauce originally from Spain and some French regions. While traditional aioli is made with just olive oil and garlic emulsified in a mortar and pestle, this less labour-intensive version is just as delicious. Featuring an unexpected yet efficient ingredient, soy milk, it achieves the creaminess characteristic of a proper aioli. Don't be intimidated by it, as this recipe is 100% foolproof, and you may have all the ingredients you need already in your kitchen!

Ingredients

  • 4
    garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1
    lemon, juiced
  • ¼ cup (60 mL)
    unsweetened soy milk, at room temperature
  • ¼ cup (60 mL)
    olive oil
  • ¼ cup (60 mL)
    vegetable oil
  • ⅛ tsp
    salt

Directions

  1. Combine all the aioli ingredients in a tall jug.
  2. Using an immersion blender sitting at the bottom of the jug, pulse until smooth and thickened*. Taste and add more garlic if you like a stronger aioli. Enjoy!

Notes

  • * Choose extra virgin olive oil for a more pronounced flavour, or a neutral olive oil if you prefer a milder aioli.
  • * Do not lift the blender back up until the emulsion has formed. Then you can go up and down to incorporate the remaining oil.

Can we use normal blender or food processor?? Thank you

Hi Archa, yes, you can use a regular blender or food processor if you'd like. We recommend blending garlic, lemon juice, soy milk and salt first. Then turn the blender or food processor on, while slowly adding the oil. Be sure to scrape down the sides as needed to ensure the aioli thickens properly, let us know how it goes! 🙂

It tastes so good! But unfortunately I had to use other plant based milk as I don't have soya. It doesn't get that ticker.

Can I use only olive oil without vegetable oil ??

PUL small logo PUL Team - June 26, 2024, 3:22 a.m.

Hi there, Narjes, you can use only olive oil instead of mixing it with vegetable oil. The flavour will be a bit stronger, so something to keep in mind. It could also be an idea to choose a more neutral-flavoured olive oil to be safe so it's not too overpowering 🙂

Hi, for how long can I store this in the fridge?

PUL small logo PUL Team - April 30, 2024, 7:04 p.m.

Hi Jess, you can store the aioli in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. In case you haven't seen it yet and it helps in the future, the storage instructions on the app are in the directions tab and the last slide of the "Make" step-by-step instructions, or at the bottom of the "Directions" tab 🤗
