Ingredients

• 2 pieces Garlic cloves
• 0.5 medium Yellow onion
• 1 piece Egg yolk
• 1.5 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Vegetable oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel and finely chop 2 garlic cloves. Set aside.

Step 2

Dice half a medium-sized yellow onion into small pieces.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and diced onion, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they are softened and lightly golden. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool completely.

Step 4

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 1 egg yolk, 1.5 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, and 0.25 teaspoons of salt until well combined.

Step 5

Drizzle 1 cup of vegetable oil very slowly into the egg yolk mixture while continuously whisking. This step requires patience—add the oil a few drops at a time initially to create an emulsion. Once the mixture begins to thicken, you can add the oil more steadily while continuing to whisk.

Step 6

Once all the oil is incorporated, stir in the cooled garlic and onion mixture. Mix well.

Step 7

Taste and season with 0.25 teaspoons of black pepper and additional salt if needed.

Step 8

Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Serve as a sandwich spread, dipping sauce, or topping for grilled dishes.
