Kaffir Lime Aioli

Prep time: 10 minutes

Description

This kaffir lime aioli was originally developed as a dressing for our Thai inspired french fries served at Stella. I love kaffir lime because it just permeates with tropical fruit and citrus. This aioli will work great for just about anything you'd use a citrus aioli for, just taken to the next level.

Instructions

Combine all ingredients, except for canola oil, in a blender and blend on medium speed for 20 seconds or until the ingredients form a smooth puree.
Begin slowly streaming in canola oil while working the blender speed up to high as the emulsion starts to form and thicken.
Once oil is completely incorporated and a thick emulsion is formed, place in a squeeze bottle and store in refrigerator. Will keep for 5 days.
