Aioli — aïoli (French spelling) or aiòli (Modern Provençal spelling) from the Provençal aiet ("garlic") and oli ("oil"), pronounced — is a cold sauce made of garlic, egg and olive oil, basically a garlic-flavoured mayonnaise.
In Provence, aioli is served with boiled vegetables, boiled fish, and boiled eggs.
The Catalan variant allioli (from the Catalan garlic and oil, pronounced) is a thick emulsion of garlic and olive oil only (no egg involved).
Different variants of this sauce exist along the Mediterranean coasts from Andalusia to Sicily.ca:Allioli de:Aioli fr:Aïoli
