Sauce Aïoli - Alexander Demyanenko ©

Aioli is a typical Provençal sauce made from garlic and olive oil (="ail" and "oli", "garlic" and "oil"). The origins of this very old preparation are believed to date back to antiquity. Aioli is said to have appeared during the Roman Empire and in ancient Egypt. In Marseille, it is a tradition for Fridays, but some restaurants offer it all week long, and we've found you the best ones!

Le Fioupelan : Aioli revisited

Among Cyrille Lemaire's signature dishes, we find a cleverly revisited version of the famous, typical and essential Provençal dish, aioli. At Le Fioupelan, green beans are replaced by sugar snap peas in raw or grilled versions, cauliflower comes in different forms, and young carrots are chosen. As for the fish, cod is grilled and finished in the oven. And the highlight of the show, the traditional aioli sauce made with mayonnaise is garnished with finely chopped garlic pieces.
