Basic Lebanese Aoili (Garlic Dressing) Recipe
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 head roasted garlic Some fresh garlic cloves for more flavor
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/8 tsp Cayenne pepper Fresh grnd pepper to tste
- 2 Tbsp. Extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 c. Unsalted chicken broth
- 1/4 c. Wine vinegar - try balsamic vinegar instead for more flavor & zest
Directions
- Basic Lebanese aoili (garlic dressing) doesn't use egg for its base but will still achieve the "mayo" consistancy - needless to say, for lo-fat use less oil or possibly substitute with one of the "better" oils - the original recipe given to me called for putting the raw garlic in a blender & pureeing it till you had a smooth paste, then a little lemon juice & pepper, then slowly add in oil (while the blender's running) - this will result in a consistency
- so we can take your basic recipe :1 head roasted garlic - add in some fresh garlic cloves for more flavor
- blend until garlic is smooth paste
- then add in 1 tsp Dijon mustard,1/2 tsp salt,1/8 tsp cayenne pepper, fresh grnd pepper to tste.
- turn blender on & add in 2 TBS extra virgin olive oil,1/4 c. unsalted chicken broth, 1/4 c. wine vinegar - try balsamic vinegar instead for more flavor & zest.
- Let sit for and hour or possibly so and serve at roon temperature.
