I started looking into how to make an Easy Mayonnaise Recipe, after a few occasions when the store bought stuff made our household sick.

We rarely have it, but it’s the base for a Seafood Sauce that we like with our prawns and other seafood over Christmas and birthdays.

Looking into other Easy Mayonnaise Recipes online, they were trying to use:

Raw eggs – salmonella alert. Not interested in making us sick again.

Boiled eggs – those who tried it said it tasted terrible.

Oil – didn’t suit my lower fat diet.

Blender – whiz it too much & it would curdle, too little & it didn’t work. Then you would have to clean out the whole sticky mess!

Often too it was in a big batch, when you really only need a small amount, so you would waste a lot of it.

Then I found it – a much better Easy Mayonnaise option. Given that we pro metabolic types are not afraid of sugar any more, this version was a total possibility. I can’t remember whether I found it on the side of a can or when searching online, but it is the version made from Sweetened Condensed Milk.

The original recipe used a whole can of Sweetened Condensed Milk which is way too much for my needs, so I have divided it down to make a smaller batch which suits about 2 meals. Also the original recipe had mustard powder in it. Now mustard powder was popular about 50 years ago when they didn’t have many other mustard options, however I always have Dijon Mustard in my my fridge to have with steak! I tried it in this recipe and it works a treat.

This Easy Mayonnaise Recipe has only three ingredients and I always have these ingredients on hand at home anyway! Time to share, here is my variation:

AND THAT’S IT!

Can you believe it’s so easy? It tastes better than the store bought one – creamy, tangy, flavourful. It may appear a little runny when first mixed, however place it in the fridge for a few hours and it thickens up.

It keeps for up to a week in the fridge in a sealed container. But honestly, it takes about 10 seconds to make, so why wouldn’t you just make a small fresh batch any time you need it?

Then even more good news, it takes only another 10 seconds and 2 more ingredients to make Seafood Sauce!

Easy Seafood Sauce

1 TBS Homemade Mayonnaise

2 TBS Fresh Cream

1 TBS Tomato Sauce

Salt/Pepper

Method

All ingredients in a small bowl and mix together with a spoon & done!

 

 

I’ve made both of these about ten times now. It always works and is delicious. Best of all, no-one gets sick any more. We can enjoy our seafood and feel nothing but great afterwards.

Enjoy!
