Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine the egg yolk, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Whisk these ingredients vigorously until well combined
Begin adding the neutral oil, drop by drop, while continuously whisking. Once the mixture thickens slightly, increase the oil stream to a thin trickle while whisking
Continue whisking and drizzling until all the oil is incorporated and you have a thick, creamy aioli
Season with salt and black pepper to taste, whisking in thoroughly
Transfer the aioli to a serving dish or an airtight container

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients to ensure proper emulsification.

If the aioli breaks, whisk a fresh egg yolk in a separate bowl and slowly incorporate the broken aioli.
