Ingredients :
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 small spoon of mustard
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 10 pistils of saffron
- 350ml olive oil
- salt, pepper and Espelette pepper
1. In a mortar (non-porous), crush garlic, salt, pepper and saffron pistils.
2. Add egg yolks and mustard, mix well.
3. Then, like a traditional mayonnaise, whip up your rouille, gradually adding the oil in a thin stream while stirring.

Accompaniment: Rouille is a condiment originating from the Mediterranean, traditionally served with fish soup. It goes well with shellfish, fish and seafood in general. It is most often associated with bouillabaisse accompanied by a slice of toast. But it is also perfect as an aperitif on croutons.
