Use the ingredients:
Ingredients
6 to 8 cloves of garlic (or more, depending on your taste)
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup mayonnaise
Juice of 1 lemon (or to taste)
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Directions
- Peel the garlic cloves and chop them finely or press them using a garlic press.
- In a bowl, mix the minced/squeezed garlic with the olive oil.
Let sit for at least 15 to 20 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse. - After the resting time, add the mayonnaise to the garlic and olive oil mixture.
Mix well until you obtain a homogeneous consistency. - Add the lemon juice to the mixture and stir again.
The lemon juice will help balance the strong flavor of the garlic and add a citrus touch to the sauce. - Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Remember to start with a small amount of salt and adjust as needed. - If desired, add chopped fresh parsley to the sauce for a touch of freshness and color.
- Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning according to your personal preferences, whether adding more garlic, lemon, salt or pepper.
- Transfer the garlic sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
This will allow the flavors to develop further. - Serve the garlic sauce with bread, grilled meats, raw vegetables or any other dish you prefer.
It is an excellent option as a side dish or condiment.
