Ingredients
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 30 grams Fresh cilantro leaves (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh coriander seeds (toasted and ground)
- 120 milliliters Olive oil
- 120 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 small Garlic clove (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Water
Directions
Step 1
Place the egg yolk in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Use a whisk or an immersion blender to beat the yolk until it becomes smooth and slightly thickened.
Step 2
In a separate container, combine the olive oil and vegetable oil. Set this aside for gradual incorporation.
Step 3
While whisking the egg yolk continuously, begin adding the oil mixture very slowly—just a few drops at a time. Once the emulsion forms and starts to thicken, you can gradually pour the oil in a thin, steady stream, continuing to whisk vigorously.
Step 4
After all the oil is incorporated and the mayonnaise is thickened, stir in the lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk until well combined.
Step 5
In a small food processor (or using a mortar and pestle), blend the fresh cilantro leaves and toasted coriander seeds with 1 tablespoon of water until you achieve a smooth paste.
Step 6
Fold the cilantro-coriander paste into the mayonnaise mixture, whisking gently to evenly distribute the flavors.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more lime juice, salt, or pepper as needed.
Step 8
Transfer the coriander cilantro mayonnaise to an airtight jar or container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
