Cucumber Aioli is one of my favorite sauces because of the refreshing taste of the cucumber. I personally like it chilled. This sauce is perfect for any egg roll dish like southwest egg rolls. They are the perfect match! Make sure to use real mayonnaise and fatty sour cream. You can also use this on a turkey sandwich. It’s very yummie! Join me in learning how to make cucumber Aioli!

Make The Cucumber Mixture
In a blender, combine the small pieces of cucumber, chopped cilantro leaves (stems removed), minced garlic, egg yolk, dill weeds, then the salt and pepper. Push and compress the ingredients. Puree until smooth. Stop blending, scrape and push the ingredients that are stuck on the side of the blender. Continue to puree until the texture becomes completely smooth. Set aside.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, put the mayonnaise, sour cream. Then carefully pour the cucumber mixture. Mix until well incorporated. Transfer into a serving bowl. Cover and chill until ready to use. Serve with your favorite fried dishes! You may refrigerate for up to 1 week. It tasted so much better the next day. Enjoy!
