Roasted Garlic Mayonnaise
Homemade roasted garlic mayonnaise is one of those simple kitchen wins that delivers huge flavour. Sophie at @thecornerplot blends slow‑roasted garlic with our Mellow Yellow cold‑pressed rapeseed oil to create a rich, creamy, additive‑free mayo in minutes. Naturally high in Omega‑3s and plant sterols and low in saturated fat, it’s a delicious, wholesome twist on classic homemade mayonnaise.
Method
-
1
Heat the oven to 220° C/200° C fan. Cut a slice off the top of the garlic bulb to expose the cloves and place the bulb on a sheet of baking parchment. Drizzle over a tablespoon of Mellow Yellow Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil, draw up the sides of the parchment paper and tie in a bundle with a piece of string.

Bake for 25 minutes, then remove, unwrap and leave to cool.

3
Place the rest of the ingredients (not the garlic) into a narrow beaker, insert the blender stick to the bottom, and blitz. The blender will gradually draw in the oil to create an emulsion – the mayo will magically form in seconds.

4
Squeeze out the garlic cloves, mash them up with a fork, then fold through the mayo.

5
Decant the mayonnaise into a sterile jar and serve with your favourite dishes. It will store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
