A deliciously easy black garlic aioli that has a zing and goes well with smashed potatoes. There are many ways to enjoy black garlic aioli. Try it on steak, burgers, or as a dip for vegetables, or fries.
1kg baby potatoes
1 sprig rosemary
3 cloves of garlic, skin on and crushed
salt and pepper
Olive Oil infused with Black Garlic (or other EVOO)
2 egg yolks
1 1/2 tsp white wine vinegar
3 garlic cloves, roasted from potatoes, or 2-3 raw garlic cloves
1 tsp mustard
½ cup rice bran or olive oil
1 tsp Black Garlic Puree
water for consistency
Black Garlic Salt (or plain sea salt) to taste
Place the potatoes in cold salted water and bring to the boil.
Preheat the oven to 200C (180C fan oven).
When the potatoes are just cooked, drain and place in baking tray.
Use something flat to squash them then add the garlic, rosemary, seasoning and a good glug of oil to make sure potatoes are lightly coated with oil.
Roast at 200c for 20-30 mins till very crispy and golden.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place the egg yolks in a food processor and blend with the vinegar, garlic (roasted or raw), mustard, and a pinch of salt.
Slowly drizzle in the oil until fully emulsified and thick.
Add the Black Garlic Puree and a splash of water to loosen the consistency.
Taste, then season with salt accordingly.
Serve the potatoes on their own or as part of a main and enjoy them smothered, dipped, or accompanied with the black garlic aioli.
This has become an absolute essential in our household — we use it on everything from breakfast eggs to steak and fish. The rich umami flavour of the black garlic paired with quality sea salt adds instant depth to any dish. It vanishes so quickly in our kitchen that I now order it by the kilo. If you’re looking for a versatile, flavour-packed seasoning, this one is a must. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind and helpful review. We're glad the Black Garlic Sea Salt is proving so versatile!
Best buy the larger quantity bag or container, its great that it doesn't contain free flowing agents, then you can use your own container and make it a special condiment on your table.
Thanks Merv, we promise to keep it pure and great tasting. :)
Only have one word to describe black garlic delicious
We're so pleased you found it delicious - that one word does sum it up nicely. Thank you!
Best condiment I have purchased in years, We put it on everything from Salads to Roast lamb, mix it with goat feta along with Black Garlic puree, it makes the feta very creamy and smooth, over tomatoes, endless uses. Its addictive (but in a good way)
I love the feta and Puree idea in particular - thank you so much for your kind review!
Amazing products. Will definitely be ordering more. Used Black garlic honey on figs. Divine
Perfect use for Black Honey... Your review is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
