Method of Preparation
  • Make sure that you use completely dry containers and food processor jars. Also, keep in mind that all the ingredients should be in room temperature.
  • Egg whites are not required for this dish, separate the egg yolks from the whites.
  • Use an electronic hand mixer or a food processor and mix the egg yolks with pepper powder and salt. Here, the use of pepper powder is strictly optional.
  • When the mixer gains a medium-high speed, slowly add 1 tablespoon of oil to the egg yolk and blend it for 30 seconds or until the oil blends well with the egg.
  • Repeat the process 4 times or until 4 tablespoons of oil is mixed.
  • Now, add the remaining oil in a thin steady stream until the egg yolk and the oil combines well to form a thick sauce.
  • Keep in mind that if the oil is too quickly added, the mayonnaise would get separate or curdle. It would take 6 – 8 minutes for this process.
  • Now add the lemon juice or vinegar and garlic paste or mustard powder and mix it properly with a quick whisk.
  • Mayonnaise sauce is ready and you can transfer it to an airtight dry container.
  • You could refrigerate it for up to 5-7 days.
