Where to find ingredients
You can find these staples at local supermarkets in Maseru or neighborhood general stores. For high-quality results, use a neutral sunflower or canola oil available in the baking or oils aisle.
Preparation method
- Place the eggs, lemon juice, seasoning powder, and salt into the blender jar.
- Pulse the blender 2 or 3 times to briefly combine the ingredients.
- With the blender running on high speed, begin pouring 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.
- Observe carefully; once the mayonnaise stops absorbing the oil and it begins to pool on the surface, stop adding.
- Carefully remove the blender lid.
- Use a spoon to gently push the mayonnaise toward the bottom of the jar, folding in any remaining oil.
- Be cautious not to let the spoon come into contact with the blender blades.
- Continue blending for a few seconds if necessary to achieve the perfect texture.
