garlic aioli

Creamy Mediterranean condiment

Garlic aioli is a creamy Mediterranean sauce made from garlic, olive oil, and often egg yolk—essentially garlic mayonnaise.

The phrase is technically redundant, since aioli already means garlic in its Provençal origins, but English speakers use it to emphasize the garlic flavor: The burger comes with garlic aioli and caramelized onions.
