Where to find ingredients
You can source these fresh staples at local supermarkets like Woolworths or Coles. Choose eggs from the refrigerated dairy aisle and your preferred light-tasting vegetable oil or sunflower oil from the pantry shelf.
Preparation method
- Place the eggs, lemon juice, powdered seasoning, and salt into the blender jar.
- Pulse the blender 2 or 3 times to briefly combine the base ingredients.
- With the blender running on high speed, begin to slowly drizzle the oil in a steady stream through the lid opening.
- Continue adding the oil until the mayonnaise reaches your desired consistency and appears fully emulsified.
- Watch for the point where the mayo stops absorbing the oil and a thin layer starts to sit on the surface.
- Carefully remove the blender lid.
- Use a spoon to gently push the mixture down towards the blades, incorporating any remaining oil.
- Take great care to keep the spoon well clear of the sharp blender blades.
- Blend for a few more seconds if necessary until you achieve the perfect, thick texture.
