Steps
In a glass jar (see notes), pour in the avocado oil. Add egg to the oil and let the ingredients settle for 1 minute.
Take the immersion blender and let it touch the bottom of the container, piercing the egg yolk completely.
Turn the immersion blender on and leave it on the bottom for about 20-30 seconds, until the whole bottom has turned white in color.
VERY SLOWLY lift it up to continue emulsifying. This process should take anywhere between 30 seconds to 1 minute. Continue blending until the mixture has thickened to your desired amount.
Add mustard and water to the mixture.
Stir in the salt and gently fold in the lemon juice. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.

Liz on 2024-11-27 (5 stars): Yum!! I made it with a large lemon 1/2 & a little extra Dijon. I didn't use the water at all, but it didn't need. I guess, the more lemon juice thinned it out.
I was shocked to taste it and love it! Thank you for sharing this recipe!!
Nyambura Karanja on 2022-10-26 (2 stars): Just tastes like oil-yuck! I tried reducing the amount of oil/trying a different type, but it still leaves a oil aftertaste. I added some garlic and it was a bit better so at least I could tolerate it in my tuna sandwich, but... I wont be making this again.
Russ on 2021-04-21 (5 stars): Great recipe. I have tried many home made mayonnaise recipes and this is the easiest and best tasting so far. Thank you.
Melody O on 2020-07-16 (5 stars): I give this recipe 5 stars. I have made 3x now and each time, it worked perfectly. The opposite of a flop. I use a Bamix immersion blender and in 3 seconds of putting the blender into the jar, I see the mayo forming. Within 6 seconds I pull the handle up and you can see lots of mayo! I go up and down no more than 4-5 times and its 100% perfecto!!
