Aioli is divine with fish or seafood dishes, or just slathered over some nice toasty bread.

Method

Steep the saffron in a little hot water for 2-3 minutes. Place the garlic and egg yolks in a food processor, add the saffron and blend until creamy.
Slowly drizzle the oil into the yolks with the processor on a low speed until the mix is thick and smooth.
Add a squeeze of lemon and season with salt and pepper.
