Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup (170 g / 6 oz) mayonnaise, store-bought or homemade
  • ½ cup (115 g / 4.1 oz) chopped roasted red peppers, jarred and drained
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml / 1 fl oz) fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml / 1 fl oz) fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon (1.5 g / 0.05 oz) sea salt, or more to taste
  • Pinch of ground black pepper, or more to taste
  • For a deeper, smokier flavor, roast your own red bell peppers under the broiler until the skin is blackened, then peel and chop.
  • Store the aioli in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. The flavors will meld and become even more delicious after a day!

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Combine all in the bowl of a food processor or a high-powered blender.
  3. Pulse or blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure everything is incorporated.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if desired. For the best flavor, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Roast the garlic cloves before blending for a sweeter, more mellow garlic flavor that won't be overpowering.
  6. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to give this creamy aioli a spicy kick.
