Step 2
Whisk the egg yolk in a mixing bowl. Add the garlic paste and stir in the lemon juice. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until a creamy aioli forms. If the dip is not thick enough, add more olive oil. If the taste is too strong, add one or more tablespoons of strained yogurt.

Step 3
Alternatively, prepare this dip in a blender or food processor. For these tools, you will need a larger quantity of garlic to fill the bowl. Double or triple the quantities of ingredients, but maintain only 1 egg yolk if using it.
