Aïoli With Vegetables Recipes

AIOLI WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Place 10 garlic cloves in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook 3 minutes, then drain. Return the garlic to the saucepan and cover with fresh water. Bring to a simmer and cook 3 more minutes, then drain again.
• Mince the remaining 2 garlic cloves; sprinkle with salt. Use the flat side of a chef's knife to mash the garlic and salt into a smooth paste. (For a stronger aioli, cook 8 cloves in step 1 and mash 4 into a paste.)
• Combine the cooked garlic and garlic paste in a food processor. Add the egg yolks and 3 tablespoons warm water; pulse to blend, scraping down the sides as needed. With the motor running, add the olive oil in a steady stream and blend until thick. Transfer to a bowl; cover and refrigerate 1 to 4 hours.
• Remove the aioli from the refrigerator about 15 minutes before serving. Whisk in up to 4 tablespoons water to thin it, if desired. Season with salt. Serve with the roasted vegetables.
• Choose several vegetables and make a foil packet for each: Pile the vegetables on foil, sprinkle with salt and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 2 tablespoons water. Seal into a packet, put on a baking sheet and roast at 450 degrees F until tender. Keep sealed until ready to serve.

AIOLI

Steps:

• Combine garlic, lemon juice and salt in a blender or food processor and let sit a minute or two. Add eggs and blend until combined. With the blender running, slowly add the olive oil in a thin, steady stream. You can use a mortar and pestle if you prefer.
• Taste for seasoning and add more salt and lemon juice if needed.

AIOLI WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Place the garlic, egg yolks, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper to taste in a food processor and process until smooth. With the motor on, pour in the olive oil in a slow stream; the mixture should emulsify and thicken. Mix in 1 tablespoon of parsley and more salt if needed. Put in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Steam the potatoes until tender, about 25 minutes. Steam the asparagus until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Blanch the carrots in salted boiling water for 30 seconds. Drain and run under cold water. Drain. Arrange the vegetables on a platter, including the fennel bulb. Garnish the fennel with its chopped greens and sprinkle the remaining parsley over the potatoes. Serve with the aioli.

AIR FRYER ROOT VEGETABLES WITH VEGAN AIOLI

Steps:

• Combine mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl for the garlic aioli; place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) if your air fryer manufacturer recommends preheating.
• Combine olive oil, rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl; set aside to allow the flavors to mingle. Combine parsnips, potatoes, carrots, and onion in a large bowl. Add olive oil-rosemary mixture and stir until vegetables are evenly coated. Place a portion of vegetables in a single layer in the basket of the air fryer, then add a rack and another layer of vegetables.
• Air fry for 15 minutes.
• When the timer sounds, you may plate the veggies and keep warm, or continue cooking in 5 minute intervals until the vegetables reach desired doneness and browning.
• Place remaining vegetables in the bottom of the air fryer basket and air fry for 15 minutes, checking for doneness, as needed. Use the rack again, if you have more vegetables than fit in a single layer. When all the vegetables have cooked, serve with garlic aioli and garnish with lemon zest.

AïOLI WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Using mortar and pestle, mash garlic with salt until almost smooth. Transfer mixture to processor.
• Whisk 6 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, egg yolks and 1 1/2 tablespoons water in small metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of barely simmering water (do not allow bowl to touch water). Whisk constantly until thermometer inserted into mixture registers 140°F for 3 consecutive minutes, about 9 minutes total. Cool slightly. Transfer to processor with garlic.
• With machine running, gradually add remaining 3/4 cup oil in thin steady stream and blend until thick (if oil is added too quickly, mayonnaise will separate and become runny). Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to small bowl. (Aïoli can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.)
• Place bowl of aïoli on platter. Surround with vegetables and eggs.

REAL AIOLI

Steps:

• Place garlic slices in a mortar with kosher salt. Mash with the pestle into a fine paste, 4 or 5 minutes. Mix in lemon juice. Add a teaspoon of olive oil; stir and mash until oil is incorporated. Add another teaspoon and mix in thoroughly. Continue incorporating olive oil, teaspoon by teaspoon, mashing and stirring until aioli thickens up. If the aioli gets thicker than you like, add a few drops of water.

GARLIC AIOLI

Steps:
