Cilantro Coriander Mayonnaise
- 1 cup cold pressed extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large organic egg
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 clove finely chopped garlic
- 1 cup finely chopped cilantro/coriander leaves
- 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice or more to taste
- a pinch or more of Celtic sea salt or Himalayan salt to taste
- Place the egg, lime juice, mustard, sea salt and garlic in your blender (I use a Vitamix), and puree until well combined.
- Keep the blender on, and slowly add in the olive oil in one steady stream until mixture emulsifies and becomes rich and creamy. Add in the cilantro until well combined.
- Then add in more lime juice or salt to achieve the desired taste.
Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
Piggy Cooking Tips
the best way to clean your blender
After blending up something sticky, gooey or smelly, just place a few drops of soap in the carriage with some warm water and blend on high until all of the congealed food slips away from the blades and sides. Then repeat this process. Then rinse with water and presto! Clean carriage.
If you have smells or stains repeat this process with some bicarbonate of soda or lemon juice and water.
