Lemon and Roasted Garlic Mayo

JustJanS's Note:

I wanted something tart and tasty to go with a seafood platter. I came up with this. I cut a little off across the top, sprinkle over a little olive oil, then roast the garlic bulb at 160c for 45 minutes wrapped in foil. I then squeeze out the soft centre into a little bowl and measure out one tablespoon. I freeze my garlic in ice block trays which happen to be 1 tablespoon a block. I usually do heaps of bulbs and use ithe frozen puree in sauces and mash etc.

5 stars as written. I then added extra roasted garlic (because I love it), some dill and some capers which were all nice additions. Perfect served atop crabcakes!!! Make for MAKE MY RECIPE.
