Mediterranean aioli sauce is the perfect complement to fish, seafood, or vegetable dishes. Its main ingredients are garlic and olive oil. It also contains egg yolk, which gives the sauce a velvety, thick texture similar to mayonnaise. All ingredients are blended until emulsified. Serve immediately, infusing your dishes and appetizers with incredible flavor.

1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.

1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.

  • 2-3 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped (do not use sprouted cloves)

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Place the garlic and salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade or in a blender. Blend for 2 seconds. Add the egg yolk and lemon juice and blend again to combine. Turn the processor on and gradually add the olive oil in a thin stream (first refined, then extra virgin).
    Exit: 1 tbsp.

    If the sauce becomes too thick, thin it with room temperature water and continue adding oil until it's completely done. Season with pepper and salt to taste, if needed..
  2. Use 2/3 of the refined olive oil so that its aroma and flavor don't overpower the sauce. This will give you a balanced flavor and save on extra virgin oil. Serve with cold-smoked fish, lobster, crab sticks made from minced yellow-stripe sardinella, or sea snails.
