Garlic Aioli Sauce

By pressurecooker

This is an amazing aioli sauce that can be used on many foods. I put it atop crab cakes, but it would make a good dip for veggies or on eggs benedict. It makes quite a bit, so you can half the recipe if you wish.

Ingredients

• 2 cloves garlic
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 lemon, juiced
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
• 2 T freshly chopped chives

Preparation

Step 1

Mince garlic and make into paste using the side of your knife. Hint: to make this go faster add a bit of salt to the garlic and continue mashing with the side of your knife. An easy solution is to use 2 T of mashed garlic from a tube, found in most grocery stores.

Place the paste in a medium-sized bowl and add: the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and oil. Season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Fold in the chives. Give it a final taste and adjust seasoning as necessary
