- 2 cloves garlic pressed (or if you don't have a garlic press, smashed with a mortar and pestle =P)
- 1 tbsp vegan butter
- 1/4 tsp dried thyme
- 1/4 tsp dried basil
- 3 tbsp vegan mayo
- A pinch of salt optional
Quick version in the microwave:
Combine the pressed garlic, butter, thyme, and basil in a bowl and microwave until the butter is melted and bubbling (about 30-45 seconds). This kind of cooks the garlic a bit and sort of re-hydrates the dried herbs.
Remove from microwave and stir in mayo until smooth and incorporated. Add a pinch of salt if you like it saltier, but I didn't find I needed it.
Stovetop version (my preferred method):
In a small pot, melt butter and cook garlic for about 20-30 seconds, until the garlic is fragrant.
Stir in the dried herbs and remove from heat and stir to let the butter cool off.
Stir in the vegan mayo until smooth and incorporated. Add pinch of salt if desired.
