Ingredients

  • from 2 large egg Egg Yolk
  • 1 cup / 240 ml Oil Use plain olive oil or vegetable oil , I used refined oil
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp Mustard Seeds
  • 1 tbsp Water
  • For flavoring mayo:
  • 2 tsp Chilli Flakes
  • 2 cloves Garlic

Instructions

  • 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

1)This can be stored in a air tight container for for 2 to 3 days in fridge.
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.
