I use my stick blender. I break an egg into a little pot, add salt pepper and a bit of mustard, (either from a jar or mustard powder), I put the stick blender in and start blending while trickling in some oil very slowly to begin. It will thicken up as you continue. I then add some lemon juice, to taste. Blend again. You then have Delia's quick mayonnaise. To turn it into tartare sauce add capers, gherkins(or I use cucumber pickle instead) and parsley. I usually give another quick zap. All in all made in under 5 minutes. I then clean the stick blender by sticking it in a cup of soapy water and turning it on.

GF can i add your recipe to my vine blog so it doesn't get lost.

Yes, no problem. I have just looked up Delia's actual recipe and discovered that I have slightly modified it over the years.

Also to turn it into seafood (Marie Rose) sauce, instead of adding capers, parsley and gherkins add a splash of brandy and some tomato puree.

I only make one eggsworth for the two of us and it will keep for about a week in the fridge (as if it could get the chance).

The aroma in my kitchen yesterday from the beef in the slow cooker was wonderful. I've put enough into a dish for today to be topped with either pastry or mashed potato. I'll freeze a similar amount for another day and make potted meat with the rest and freeze in small dishes. We'll have today's pie with roasted butternut squash, french beans and carrots.

Roast Chicken breast and salad. Stewing some beef for tomorrow. Sponge pudding or Apple crumble for afters today.
