Garlic Mayonnaise

Put the egg yolk, mustard and lemon juice into a clean mixing bowl and whisk until smooth using a whisk or hand mixer.

First incorporate the sunflower oil drop by drop while stirring constantly until the mixture visibly thickens.

Once the mayonnaise has body, stir in the remaining oil in a thin stream or in slightly larger portions until a smooth, creamy mayonnaise forms.

Season with salt to taste.

Peel the garlic, press it through a garlic press and stir it into the mayonnaise.

Optional for those in a hurry: use ready-made mayonnaise and simply stir in the pressed garlic.
