Tartar sauce is really good with fried breaded or battered fish filets. This sauce offers a creamy taste with hints of bitter and sour in there, to really complement the fish. This is so easy to put together.

Ingredients

Scale
    • 1/2 pint (250ml) olive oil
    • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
    • 2 egg yolks
    • 1/2 teaspoon white sugar
    • 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
    • Salt and black pepper, to taste
    • 4 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
    • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
    • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
    • 4 teaspoons chopped pickles (gherkins or cornichons)
    • 4 teaspoons chopped capers

Instructions

  1. Add the mustard, egg yolks, sugar, vinegar and a pinch each of salt and pepper to your blender or food processor.
  2. Combine to make a pale, smooth paste.
  3. Pour in the olive oil, in a steady stream, until the mayonnaise mixture is the right consistency.
  4. Add the parsley, chives, pickles and capers and blend well.
  5. Add the lemon juice gradually, tasting as you go, until the tartar sauce has the right flavor.
