Serves: 4 - 6
 

Ingredients:

1 large egg yolk -- at room temperature
1 large garlic clove -- minced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon chopped drained capers
1 teaspoon chopped oil cured olives
 

Preparation:

Place the egg yolk, garlic and lemon juice in a blender. With the machine on, slowly add the olive oil in a thin stream to make a thick mayonnaise. If the mixture separates at any time, add 2 teaspoons of hot water and continue blending until emulsified. Scrape the mayonnaise into a small bowl. Stir in the capers and olives. Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 days. (The original recipe had anchovies which I took out to make vegetarian. If you like anchovies, go ahead and add them back in.)
