Jump To The Recipe

This is one of those recipes that feels way fancier than it actually is. It takes just 5 minutes to whip up, but the flavor makes everything taste like it came straight off a restaurant menu. I keep a jar of this aioli in the fridge because it’s the easiest way to turn fries, sandwiches, or even roasted veggies into something special.

❤️ Why You’ll Love Truffle Garlic Aioli

Sometimes you want to impress without stressing, and this truffle aioli is exactly that. It’s creamy, garlicky, and has that earthy truffle flavor that feels a little indulgent.

I love how versatile it is. I’ll smear it on a burger one day, serve it with fries the next, and use it as a dip for roasted potatoes on the weekend. It’s one of those “keep it in the fridge and you’ll keep finding excuses to use it” kind of recipes.

🗒 Tips and Tricks

If you want a stronger truffle flavor, add a little extra truffle oil, but go slow, it can get overpowering quickly.
For a lighter version, swap half the mayo with Greek yogurt.
Let it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors really come together.

🗒 Variations

Spicy kick: Stir in a pinch of cayenne or red pepper flakes.
Herb boost: Add finely chopped parsley, basil, or chives.
Citrusy: Swap lemon juice for lime for a brighter twist.

🗒 Substitutions

Use all mayo if you don’t want sour cream! It’ll be richer and creamier.
Can’t find truffle oil? Try a drizzle of high-quality olive oil for a different flavor profile.
Swap garlic for roasted garlic if you like a sweeter, more mellow flavor.

🗒 Best Served With

French fries or sweet potato fries 🍟
Spread on burgers or sandwiches 🍔
Drizzled over roasted potatoes or grilled veggies 🥔🥦
As a dip for shrimp, chicken, or even breadsticks 🍤🍗🥖

👝 How to Store Leftovers

Keep your truffle aioli in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Give it a quick stir before using again.
I don’t recommend freezing it. The texture won’t hold up.

🤔 Common Questions

1. Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes! In fact, it tastes even better after sitting in the fridge for a few hours.

2. What’s the difference between truffle oil and fresh truffles?

Truffle oil is the more budget-friendly, everyday option. It gives you the flavor without having to track down fresh truffles.

3. Can I use light mayo or low-fat sour cream?

You can, but the aioli won’t be as rich and creamy. Still tasty though!
