Ingredients

Sun Dried Tomato Aioli Ingredients

  • ¼ cup sun dried tomatoes
  • 1 small garlic clove, peeled
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 3-4 large basil leaves

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients: Gather all the ingredients - sun dried tomatoes, peeled garlic clove, lemon juice, mayonnaise, and basil leaves.
  2. Blend all ingredients: Place the sun dried tomatoes, garlic, lemon juice, mayonnaise, and basil leaves into a small food processor or use an immersion blender directly in a bowl. Process or blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined, creating a creamy aioli.
  3. Serve or store: Transfer the aioli into a serving dish or container. It can be used immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to enhance flavors.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of chili flakes or a small amount of hot sauce while blending.
  • If sun dried tomatoes are packed in oil, drain them slightly before blending to control the aioli's consistency.
  • This aioli pairs wonderfully with grilled vegetables, sandwiches, seafood, or as a dip for fries.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and consume within 3 days for best freshness.
