Pasta salad

The mayonnaise is home made, and dead easy (faster than going to the shop to buy it):

  • 2 egg yokes

  • up to 1 cup of oil (half olive, half ordinary cooking)
  • juice from half a lemon
  • salt and pepper

Gently beat the egg yokes and very gradually add the oil, a few drops at a time. Combine the oil before adding any more. After this add lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.
