1 1/2 cups vegetable oil (approximately)
Juice of 1 lime
1 sachet seasoning powder
1 pinch salt (1/4 teaspoon)
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil (approximately)
Juice of 1 lime
1 sachet seasoning powder
1 pinch salt (1/4 teaspoon)
Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh eggs, limes, and vegetable oil at any local supermarket or neighborhood produce stall. The seasoning powder can be found in the dry goods or spice aisle of any grocery shop. For a variation, you may substitute lime juice with white vinegar, though lime is preferred for its bright, local flavor profile.
Preparation method
- Place the eggs, lime juice, seasoning powder, and salt into the blender jar.
- Pulse the blender 2 or 3 times to pre-mix the ingredients.
- With the blender running on high speed, begin to pour the oil in a steady, thick stream through the lid opening.
- Continue adding the oil until the mayonnaise reaches your desired consistency and appears saturated with oil.
- Take note that the mayonnaise will eventually stop absorbing the oil and it will start to pool on the surface.
- Carefully remove the blender lid.
- Use a spoon to gently push the mixture down toward the blades, incorporating any remaining oil.
- Be cautious to ensure the spoon does not make contact with the blender blades.
- Continue blending if necessary until you achieve the perfect, silky consistency.
