Starters and Snacks / Egg Free Aioli (and/or Egg Free Mayo)
« on: November 09, 2008, 12:20:02 pm »
Name of Recipe: Egg-Free Aioli (see hints and tips for Mayo)

Ingredients:
2-3 cloves of garlic (i used 3 small ones - was quite strong)
150g milk
1 1/2 tsp salt
450g oil (corn or sunflower oil - olive oil is a bit strong)
juice of 1/2 lemon

Preparation:
Chop garlic 6sec on speed 6

Add milk and salt and mix for 20sec on speed 7

Set speed to position 4-5 and have MC in place

Pour oil in a gentle stream onto lid. Will automatically 'suck' oil in.

Take about 4mins to add in all the oil.

At the end add the lemon juice onto the lid, and mix for another 30secs, so Aioli sets.


Tips/Hints:

Add a dash of Sweet Paprika and you'll have a great dressing for prawns.

If you omit the garlic and add 2 tsp of mustard you'll have a great Egg Free Mayo.

This Aioli is so yummy, espeically with homemade crackers... very addictive. :)

womblydoo - This was really popular! Despite the fact I didn't read the recipe properly and put in the whole tin on condensed milk! When I poured it in the pan, I wondered why the recipe said to press the mixture. I ended up blitzing a pack of milk arrowroots and remixing it, so the clinkers were very crushed up. Looking forward to trying it again.

riv mum - Very quick and easy, but def for the sweet tooth. Went down nicely with the kids and DH.

JD - I've just cut this one into slices and neatened the edges - guess where all the edges went  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes  Lovely slice for Easter but I'm hoping the kids really like it and don't leave too much behind for me to eat myself.  Maybe doggie bags will be in order.  Thanks Alina - been eyeing this one off for a long time now and found the perfect occasion to make it.
