Servings 1 cup

Ingredients

3/4 cup Parboiled ackee
2 tsps Lemon Juice (use vinegar if you want a tangier mayo)
2 tbsps Oil (use something mild in flavour, I used canola)
1 tsp Grainy mustard optional (I like the texture)
1/4 tsp to 1 tsp Ground mustard
Salt to taste

Instructions

In a small blender cup or food processor, combine ackees, lemon juice or vinegar, oil and grainy mustard if using.
Pulse a few times till combined, you may notice that the mayo looks like its going to break, this is where the mustard powder comes in, it will at as an emulsifier and hold it all together.
Start adding the ground mustard 1/4 tsp at a time until emulsified, thick and smooth. Though it may seem a bit loose it will thicken up a bit more as it sits.
Enjoy!
