Beetroot Mayonnaise Recipe

This is a quick and easy foolproof recipe for home made mayonnaise. You can adjust the quantity keeping in mind that the ratio is one egg to 250ml of oil.

Ingredients:

Two large fresh eggs at room temperature

One tablespoon of wholegrain mustard

Juice of one lemon

Salt and pepper

500ml of canola oil

two small cooked beetroots

Method: Combine the eggs, mustard, lemon, salt and pepper in a blender and blend really well on high speed for one minute. Start adding the oil in a steady stream. The liquid will start thickening instantly. As soon as all the oil is in the mixture add the beetroot and blend until smooth.

Arrange all the ingredients for the salad on a flat board or large salad platter, garnish with lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper and fill the rolled cucumber with the beetroot mayonnaise.

Enjoy!
