Homemade Mayonnaise Recipe with step by step pictures. This recipe is rich and tangy that makes the perfect dipping sauce for fries, seafood, sandwiches, and vegetables.
Homemade Mayonnaise
There comes the ultimate dipping sauce. One of my all time favorite, i can slather this sauce in all this edible. There is nothing compared homemade, i dont prefer that jarred mayo which they have packed years back. I love that creamy goodness which is made fresh at home. It taste really yummy, you got to try this one..
Ingredients for Homemade Mayonnaise
- Egg Yolk - from 2 large egg
- Oil - 1 cup / 240 ml ( Use plain olive oil or vegetable oil ) , I used refined oil
- Salt - 1 tsp
- Lemon Juice - 2 tsp
- Mustard Seeds - 1 tsp
- Water - 1 tbsp
For flavoring mayo:
- Chilli Flakes - 2 tsp
- Garlic - 2 cloves
Whenever i make mayo at home, i add some garlic, because garlic mayo is seriously addictive. I have got so many request from you all to post this recipe, and finally i made it couple weeks back. I decided to make two types of mayo, a spicy chilli mayo and a pungent garlic mayo..
I love to serve this with chicken fry, grilled chicken, chicken croquettes..It taste so good. But the most favorite dish of mine is fried onion rings, that is what i made..Will share the recipe soon..

How to Make Homemade Mayonnaise
- Start by making mustard powder. I didn't have any, so i took some whole mustard seeds in a mortar and pestle and crushed it to make powder.
- Take egg yolk(no whites please) in a small blender (use small jar from your blender), add in lemon juice, salt, water, mustard powder and blend them for 30 seconds.
- Now it must have turned little frothy.
- Now add in ⅓ of the oil and blend it for 30 seconds.By this time it must have turned little thick.
- Add in ⅓ of oil again and blend for 30 more seconds. By this time it must have turned little more thick.
- Now add in the remaining oil and blend for 30 more seconds. Now you find the mayo to be thick and creamy.
- You can use this as it is. Or go one step further like i did.
- I divided the mayo into two bowls. Add chilli flakes in one and minced garlic in other.
- Mix it well and serve with your favorite snacks.

Notes
2)Since it has raw eggs in it, always keep the mixture cool.
3)Use the small jar from your blender. Big jars wont work.
4) Only egg yolks should be used.So separate the egg yolk carefully.
5)If you find the mayo curdled. Dont panic. Start with a new batch. Take couple of egg yolks and use the curdled mixture as the oil, slowly add it and blend it. This way you will get a perfect mayo.

Hi Aarthi
What is the shelf life for this mayo?
How do we preserve this? Since egg yolk is used I am concerned.
Thanks

@AnonymousU can store it in a air tight container in fridge for 2 to 3 days.

hello aarthi . the mayo turned out bitter. half way while grinding I tasted it and was bitter so I stopped adding more oil and grinding . I followed exactly same steps so what could be the problem
Anonymous

Hi Aarti
I would like to save the mayo for atleast one week as I am a working mom.
I would like to prep the mayo in the weekend and use it through the week.
Any ideas for that please.
