Basic Aioli - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 garlic cloves
2 egg yolks
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
salt and pepper

Preparation

Mix the garlic in a food procesor.
Add the egg and process until well mixed. With the motor running, slowly pour in half of the olive oil. Stop the machines and add the lemon juice. Then, with the motor running, slowly pour in the rest of the olive oil and process until the mixture is thickened and the oil is emulsified.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, covered, and up to 12 hours before serving. This will allow the raw garlic flavor to mello.
