Ingredients

  • 2 fresh egg yolks
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tsp Mustard
  • 1 lemon (juice)
  • 250 ml olive oil
  • 20 ml cognac
  • 4 tbsp ketchup
  • Cayenne pepper

Instructions

  1. 1.

    When making the mayonnaise it is important that all ingredients are at room temperature. Whisk the egg yolks with salt, mustard and 1 tbsp lemon juice vigorously. Then, using a whisk or hand mixer, add a few drops of oil, then slowly drizzle in the remaining oil in a thin stream, adding only enough to bind the yolk into a thick, creamy mayonnaise.

  2. 2.

    Stir in the cognac and ketchup, season with salt and cayenne pepper.
