  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large garlic clove sliced
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Slowly pour the oil mixture into the measuring cup while blending with a handheld immersion blender. Blend for 3-6 minutes, moving the immersion blender up and down until the mixture looks like mayo.
