A quick and easy method of making aioli, sometimes called garlic mayonnaise. Use as a dip for radishes, carrots, celery and other raw or cooked vegetables. Goes particularly well with boiled new potatoes and, of course, chips.
Place everything except the oil (& 1 tbsp lemon juice) into a jug blender and blend on medium speed for a few seconds until everything is smooth.
Remove the plug from the lid and turn the blender to slow.
Slowly trickle in the oil, increasing the flow as it blends. It's important to only add a small amount to begin with to avoid the oil separating.
Turn off the blender as soon as the oil has been used up and the mixture has emulsified. It should be thick enough to use as a dip, but still have plenty of give in it.
Taste the aioli and if not lemony enough, add the final tbsp lemon juice and blend briefly.
Scrape out of the blender into a suitable serving dish and enjoy.
