Where to find ingredients
You can find these staples at local supermarkets like Choppies or Spar. Look for fresh eggs and standard sunflower or vegetable oil in the baking or oils aisle. The powdered seasoning can be found in the spices section.
Preparation method
- Place the eggs, lemon juice, powdered seasoning, and salt into the blender jar.
- Pulse the blender 2 or 3 times to combine the base ingredients.
- With the blender running on high speed, slowly pour the oil in a steady, thick stream through the hole in the lid.
- Keep adding the oil until the mayonnaise reaches your preferred thickness and looks fully saturated.
- Watch for the point where the mixture stops absorbing the oil and it begins to pool on the surface.
- Carefully remove the blender lid.
- Use a spoon to gently push the mixture toward the bottom, incorporating any excess oil.
- Be very careful to avoid the blender blades while using the spoon.
- Continue blending briefly if needed until you reach the desired consistency.
