Main Ingredients

Garlic Aioli

Method

Preparation of Garlic Aioli

  1. 1

    Make the Aioli

    In a mixing bowl, combine the egg yolk, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Whisk together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Emulsify the Aioli

    Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously. This will create a creamy texture. Continue to whisk until fully emulsified and thickened.

  3. 3

    Season the Aioli

    Add salt to taste and mix well. Set aside in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the rest of the dish.

Assemble and Cook

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of 'Nduja on two slices of sourdough bread.

  2. 5

    Add Cheese

    Thinly slice the Mahón cheese and layer it on top of the 'Nduja on the same slices of bread.

  3. 6

    Top and Grill

    Place the remaining two slices of sourdough on top to form sandwiches. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil. Once hot, place the sandwiches in the skillet.

  4. 7

    Cook Until Golden

    Grill each side for about 3-4 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted.

  5. 8

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet, cut in half, and serve immediately with the chilled garlic aioli on the side for dipping.
