Ingredients

  • Milk
  • Vegetable oil (corn or sunflower oil recommended)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Lemon juice
  • Touch of turmeric (optional for color)

Instructions

  1. Mix Milk and Oil: Use the exact same quantity of milk and oil. For instance, if you use 1 cup of milk, use 1 cup of oil.
  2. Blend: Combine the milk and oil in a bowl. Use a whisk, food processor, or hand blender to blend until the mixture starts to thicken.
  3. Add Salt and Turmeric: Add a pinch of salt for seasoning and a touch of turmeric for that authentic yellowish color. Continue blending.
  4. Lemon Juice: Squeeze in some lemon juice to give your mayonnaise a note of sourness and acidity. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
  5. Adjust Consistency: If the mayonnaise is too liquid, add a bit more oil and blend again to achieve the desired thickness.

Tips

  • Vegetable Oil: While olive oil can be used, it is a little heavy for this recipe, so a lighter vegetable oil like corn or sunflower oil is recommended.
  • Vegan Version: To make it completely vegan, substitute the regular milk with soy milk for a similar result.

This recipe will give you a rich, delicious alternative to egg-based mayonnaise in under two minutes. Adjust the quantity of milk and oil to make as much as you need. Enjoy your homemade egg-free mayonnaise!
