Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 egg yolks
pinch English mustard powder
pinch ground white pepper , or use ground black pepper
2 tbsp cider vinegar
250ml groundnut oil
50ml extra-virgin olive oil
zest 1 lemon
1 bunch chives , finely chopped

Steps:

  • Mix the egg yolks with the mustard powder, pepper, 1 tbsp cider vinegar and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Mix the oils together in a jug. Use an electric whisk to whisk the yolk mixture, then very slowly, drip-by-drip, add the oil. When the mixture is pale and thicker, and no oil is visible, swap from a drip to a slow, steady stream - whisking all the while.
  • When all the oil is added and you have a thick mayonnaise, taste and season with more vinegar, salt and pepper. Stir in the lemon zest and chives, then chill until ready to serve.
