Garlic Aioli - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 egg, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups fruity olive oil
1 - 1 1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, to taste
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground white pepper

Preparation

In a blender or a food processor, puree garlic with egg.
Mix oil with lemon juice in a pouring jar.
With motor running, add oil mixture slowly in a thin stream.
Add salt and pepper and whirl an additional 10 seconds.
Taste for seasoning.
Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
If the mixture separates or does not thicken, correct it as follows: Pour all but 1 tablespoon of separated mayonnaise into another container.
Add 1 tablespoon water to remaining tablespoon of mayonnaise in food processor.
With motor running, add separated mayonnaise slowly; mixture should regain right consistency- if not, try again.
It is best to prepare this the day before, to allow flavors to mingle and mellow out.
