Hello!

Nana's boiled mayo

Try it in a layered salad of cold boiled sliced potatoes, sliced red onion and tinned baby peas. mmmmm just like nanna makes.

Method

In a jug, whisk the egg and sugar.
Put it all in a small saucepan, with the butter and salt and heat over a medium-low heat, WHISKING CONSTANTLY, for about 2-3 minutes until it thickens. (it doesnt go as thick as store-bought mayo, maybe like...a thin custard?)

Thanks for the recipe. My Mum used to make mayo all the time and I couldn’t remember how she made it.
