MAYO PRONTO!
Recipe By Reliable Sugo
Say hello to MAYO PRONTO! — the kind of sauce that starts as “I’ll just have a little taste” and somehow ends up spooned onto everything. This one’s rich, punchy and unapologetically garlicky, levelled up with Pasta Pronto and a generous pour of good olive oil.
Created by the one and only Reliable Sugo, it’s proof that mayo doesn’t need to be boring... It just needs the right attitude (and a lot of flavour).
What You’ll Need
- Pasta Pronto Seasoning *QB from It's Olio! www.itsolio.com.au
- 1 whole egg
- 75g of a great quality EV olive oil (I highly recommend Mr. Olio from It's Olio).
- 175g of regular, light flavoured olive oil (don't use seed oil, it's crap)
- 1-2 tsp of Dijon mustard
- 3-4 garlic cloves
- 15g of lemon juice and/or white balsamic condiment - I like to use 15g of each - an immodest pinch of salt
QB stands for “quanto basta” and essentially translates to as much as needed/up to your discretion
How to Make Them
Peel your garlic cloves without cracking them, it's annoying but fundamental.
Place into a ramekin and cover the EVO oil.
Place into airfryer for 1.5 hours at 80 degrees Celsius to confit.
In a bowl or tall jar, combine the whole egg, garlic, salt, and lemon or vinegar. Whisk until fully smooth and slightly frothy.
Start adding the oil a few drops at a time, whisking continuously. The first 2–3 tablespoons must go in very slowly. As it begins to thicken and emulsify, you can increase to a thin, steady drizzle, still whisking without stopping.
Once the oil is fully incorporated, add the truffle oil in the same manner and you will have a thick, creamy aioli, taste and adjust the salt. Crush your confit garlic and add to the mix and whisk/blend in.
Now, add a very generous amount of pasta pronto! Don't be shy, it's delicious - mix through well.
Place into the fridge for an hour to set, covered in cling film.
Serve alongside your molto Crispy Roast patate and......................................................now it's time to mangiare!
