Ingredients

4 Slices of thick bacon, chopped
3 Egg yolks
2 Garlic cloves, chopped
3/4 cup Vegetable Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions

1

Fry the chopped bacon over low heat to render the oh so delicious fat. When done to your liking, strain the bacon and reserve the fat in a glass measuring cup. Fill the measuring cup to the 1 cup level with oil (combined oil and bacon fat). Set the bacon aside to add back into the completed aioli.
2

Puree the egg yolks and garlic in a blender. Slowly add the oil and bacon fat mixture to the running blender to create an emulsion. If the aioli is too thick, thin with a little water. Fold the bacon into the sauce, add the lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.
