Method
- Place the egg yolk in the small bowl of a food processor with the mustard powder, half the lemon juice and some seasoning.
- Pulse to mix, then add the oil really slowly, drop by drop at first, until the mixture begins to emulsify and you have a lovely thick mayonnaise.
- Add the remaining lemon juice and taste to see if it needs more seasoning.
- Scrape into a bowl and stir through the chopped capers, gherkins, parsley and shallot. Taste again and add more of any of the flavourings if you need to.
