Kath, if I had participated in this challenge, I would have made the aioli using the stick blender myself…along with an egg yolk. Creamy and ‘mayo-ish’ is how I like my aioli too..so kudos on that one! I ‘also’ would have added all the sofregit, because how can something so good be too much with rice and seafood? Bottom line, even though I didn’t make the dish, through you, I kind of feel like I did, since (as mentioned already) that’s exactly how I would have done it, including the seafood mix minus the cuttlefish. However, not sure my photos would have looked as mouth watering as yours Fantastic job…’our challenge’ came out awesome! ;D

Thanks for the kind link! Glad you liked the recipe although there were some bits to it that were less then pleasant. I keep hearing people talk about the modern way of making the aioli and I think I do have to try that too. I’ve only done the classic way which I loved, but am now curious to try the modern version too!
