Alioli - Spanish Style Recipe #376330
Alioli or garlic mayonnaise is so tasty & so easy to make at home, I also think it tastes much better than the store bought jars.
I first tried alioli while on holiday in Spain. It must've been during the early 1980's while in the Costa Blanca area.
At the time it was served with a meal, in a small dish (finger bowl size) & seemed to accompany every main meal.
So, I guess as I was the youngest it was down to me to try it, maybe I was the adventurous one in my family........or maybe I had no choice? anyway, whatever the reason it tasted delicious!
This recipe does require the use of a blender making it easier & fool proof.
