Homemade Arabic Garlic Sauce

Ingredients

• 4 garlic cloves (Peeled)
• 1 cooked potato (Peeled; approximately 150 g cooked flesh)
• 3 tbsp mayonnaise
• salt (To taste)

Steps

1. 1

   Peel the 4 garlic cloves. If the potato is not yet cooked, boil it until tender when pierced with a fork; let it cool enough to handle, peel it, and cut it into pieces.

2. 2

   Place the garlic cloves in a blender and blend until finely crushed. Stop the blender and scrape down the sides if necessary so everything is processed evenly.

3. 3

   Add the cooked potato to the blender and blend again until both ingredients are combined and a thick mixture forms.

4. 4

   Add the 3 tbsp mayonnaise and blend again until the mixture looks smooth and creamy.

5. 5

   Add salt to taste. Blend for a few more moments until you have a smooth cream with no visible pieces of garlic or potato.

6. 6

   Taste and adjust the salt if necessary. Serve as an accompaniment to bread, meat, chicken, or shawarma.

Notes

The original recipe does not specify the time or method for cooking the potato; boil it in water until tender. Refrigerate the sauce in an airtight container and preferably consume it within 3 to 4 days.
