Although it’s a versatile and necessary component in many recipes, let’s be honest: mayonnaise isn’t always the healthiest choice. The good news is that avocado-mayonnaise is a fantastic substitute that we have for you! We think it tastes even better than it is, in addition to being healthier.
The star of this recipe is the avocado. It has many health advantages in addition to being tasty and creamy. Avocados are high in healthy fats that are beneficial to your health, even if they contain fat. You can benefit from it when you consume it in moderation. Avocados also aid with fullness, which makes it simpler to cut back on food intake. It’s also a fantastic source of vitamin E, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids.
Now let’s get to the recipe. Here’s what you’ll need: Ingredients:
- Half a room-temperature avocado
- One egg
- 2 measures of sunflower oil (using your fingers as a measure)
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- Black pepper
- 2 sprigs of fresh cilantro (coriander)
- A pinch of salt
Preparation: Combine the avocado, egg, and lemon juice in a food processor or blender. Blend till creamy and smooth. Blending continuously, slowly add the sunflower oil. This will contribute to the mixture’s emulsification and give it a creamy mayonnaise texture. After the mixture is smooth, stir in the fresh cilantro, a dash of salt, and a little black pepper for flavor. Blend one more until everything is thoroughly mixed.
If necessary, taste and adjust the seasoning. To taste, you can add additional salt and pepper or more lemon juice for a tangier flavor. That’s it, too! It’s time to savor your healthy and delectable avocado mayonnaise. Use it as a spread for sandwiches, a dip, or to add a creamy and savory twist to your favorite salads. Bid farewell to conventional mayo and hello to this delicious and low-fat substitute. Have fun!
Enjoy!
