Steps:
- In a mortar and pestle, smash the garlic and salt into a paste. In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolk until smooth. Whisk in the lemon juice. Slowly drizzle in the canola oil, whisking to make a thin mayonnaise. Whisk in the garlic-salt paste and the olive oil. Just before serving, mix in the tarragon. Parsleyed Potatoes: Slice the potatoes across, not lengthwise, about one-quarter-inch thick. Put them in a pot with the garlic, onion and salt and add water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Pour off the water carefully and add ice water to stop the cooking. Drain, then pat the slices dry with a paper towel and lay flat. Clarify the butter by melting over low heat until it separates. Skim the foam, leaving 2 tablespoons clarified butter. Just before serving, heat the clarified butter in a large skillet and add the potatoes. Cook on both sides, turning gently, to heat through, about 5 minutes. Season with the salt and pepper and sprinkle with parsley. Yellowtail: Heat the olive oil until almost smoking in a heavy iron skillet. Add the fish and cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn over the fish and cook for 1 minute for medium-rare. Squeeze a couple of drops of lemon juice on each filet. To serve, overlap four to five potato slices to make a circle in the center of each plate. Place one filet on top of the potatoes, and serve the aioli in a ramekin on the side.

CHEF JOHN'S TARRAGON AIOLI
The beauty of aioli made in the traditional method with a mortar and pestle is that a small amount of garlic can flavor a large amount of mayo. Also, this real aioli is so strong and powerful that you don't need half a cup of mayo on your grilled fish. Just a teaspoon of my version is so intense it will fully flavor a whole piece of meat or pile of veggies.
