1large handfulherbs, e.g. chives, parsley, tarragon, lovage or similar
30gegg yolks
1-2tbsplemon juice
1tspDijon mustard
Salt
Instructions
Rinse the herbs thoroughly and pat them dry.
Pour the oil into a blender with the herbs and blend on high speed until the oil is completely green.Let it run for a good 4-5 minutes. This warms the oil slightly, so it draws more flavour and colour out of the herbs.
Put the egg yolks, lemon juice and Dijon mustard in a mini chopper or small blender and blitz briefly to combine. Then add the oil a little at a time, blending continuously, until all the oil has been used and the mayonnaise has thickened.
Season the mayonnaise with salt and keep it in the fridge until serving – it keeps well for 3-4 days.
