Mayonnaise recipe



Recipe for mayonnaise in our easy vegetarian recipes collection.

Recipe ingredients

  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons cider vinegar

How to make mayonnaise

  • All the ingredients must be at room temperature.
  • Put the egg yolks in a bowl with the salt and mustard and whisk together with a balloon whisk.
  • Beating constantly and evenly, add the olive oil at a very slow trickle.
  • A bottle with a nick cut in the cork can be used to ensure that only a very little oil dribbles out at a time.
  • The aim is to break up the oil into very small globules so that it can be absorbed by the egg yolks.
  • When all the oil has been added you should have a thick glossy emulsion that will cling to the whisk.
  • Gradually beat in the cider vinegar.
  • For a thinner mayonnaise, beat in 1 tablespoon hot water
