{{RecipeIngredients
| 1 small [[free range egg]]
| 1 cup [[Spanish]] extra virgin [[Olive oil|olive oil]]
| 3 Cloves of [[Garlic]], peeled and crushed
| 1 teaspoon [[Sherry vinegar|sherry vinegar]] or fresh [[Lemon juice|lemon juice]]
| [[Sea Salt|sea salt]] to taste
}}
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| Break the [[Egg|egg]] into a small mixing bowl
| Add 2 tablespoons of [[Olive oil|olive oil]], the crushed [[Garlic|garlic]] cloves and the [[Vinegar|vinegar]] or [[Lemon juice|lemon juice]]
| If using a food processor, tip the contents of the bowl into the food processor
| At full-speed, mix until the [[Garlic|garlic]] is combined into a paste
| Little by little (don't rush this stage), add the [[Olive oil|olive oil]] whilst blending at high speed
| Add [[Salt|salt]] to taste - but not too much. My first attempt was ruined because it was too salty.

===Chef's notes===
If the allioli is too thick, add a teaspoon of water to loosen it.

It will probably be too runny if you use a large egg, so if you have no choice of size, use less of the white. You can always add more if needed; you can't take it out afterwards though!

This can also be made in a [[Food processor|food processor]] with a blade attachment.

If you add the olive oil too quickly and the mixture separates into an oily mess, try the rescue method recommended by the award-winning Spanish chef, José Andrés: "Measure out 1 tablespoon of lukewarm water and add to the mix little by little until you have the creamy sauce you wanted".

Having tried the above suggestion a few times to no avail, I would suggest adding another whole fresh egg into the split mixture, maybe a dash of nice vinegar and just blitz for a minute or so. You'll hear the difference as the curdled mixture starts to coagulate properly. This ''fix'' has worked for me, every time.
