Garlic sauce

Almost everyone loves it, garlic sauce. With a delicious sandwich, a BBQ or a Greek dish, the garlic sauce should not be missing. There are many varieties available in the supermarket. But of course you can make a nice creamy version yourself. And with this recipe, it is not even that difficult to make the most delicious garlic sauce.

Preparation

• Grab a high cup or bowl and put the two egg yolks in it
• Add a heaping tablespoon of mustard and the salt
• Add the two teaspoons of lemon juice or vinegar (no more)
• Crush the garlic cloves and add them to the mixture
• There are two ways to make the garlic sauce creamy: 1 with the immersion blender or 2 with the whisk
• 1) If you use the immersion blender, pour in the rapeseed oil in one go and mix the whole on a low setting to a nice thick sauce
• 2) If you use a whisk, whether or not automatic, first pour a little oil into the mixture and turn on the whisk or whisk it well Then add a little more oil each time while you keep stirring, the mixture should remain a stiff sauce
• Once you see a nice mayonnaise-like sauce, you can pour in the rest of the oil and stir until all the oil is absorbed
• Finally, mix a little water through it to get a whiter color Put the 'mayonnaise' in a bowl and add the yogurt, dill or parsley, coriander powder and mint and stir well
• Let it stand for a while so that the herbs can mix well with the sauce, the longer the sauce stands, the stronger it will taste

Enjoy your dinner

If you like a slightly more sour or more southern version of the garlic sauce, you can add some extra lemon juice or vinegar. Do you want to use the sauce as a salad dressing? Then add a little more water until you have the desired thickness. Did you know that you can also leave out the garlic and replace it with a whole grated cucumber (drained)? This makes a tasty, fresh spread for bread. This sauce can easily be kept for two weeks in a sealed jar in the refrigerator.
