Sauce for Beef Fondue

1 egg yolk
1/4 tsp of salt
a squirt of mustard
black pepper,
oil
red wine vinegar
5 cloves of garlic
curry powder
catsup
Tabasco sauce
cream

Hi, My Swiss neighbor used to make beef fondue a lot and she would make a
homemade mayonnaise out of 1 egg yolk, about a 1/4 tsp of salt, a squirt
of mustard, sprinkle of black pepper, and mix it in a glass bowl (not
plastic) with a whisk until thickened for a couple of minutes, then add a
few drops of oil at a time and keep stirring until it thickens each time.
When it gets too thick she would thin it with just a little red wine
vinegar but not too much as it will break down the mayonnaise. She used
about 1 cup of oil and 1 egg for 4 or 5 people.

This mayo can ruin pretty easily but I've seen a recipe in a cookbook for
homemade mayo that was quite similar to hers and that might be easier to
try something that has a good recipe and ingredient amounts.

Anyway, after she made the mayo, she would take 3 of her fondue sauce
bowls and fill them up with the mayo. She would crush about 5 cloves of
garlic to go in one bowl, and the second one she would put enough curry
powder to season it. In the 3rd bowl she would squirt some catsup and a
little bit of Tabasco sauce and a bit of cream and a sprinkle of salt &
pepper.

All 3 of these were really good with her meat fondue. Hope this helps but
the mayo was the hard part!!!

Good luck!
