Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Karen Mintzias
6 Garlic cloves
Salt
1 c Mashed potatoes
2 sl Stale white bread
1/3 c Olive oil
1 tb Lemon juice
1 tb Vinegar
Pepper

Pound garlic with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a mortar until smooth. Add
mashed potatoes and continue to pound and stir with pestle. Soak
bread (crusts removed) in cold water and squeeze dry. Add to potatoes
and garlic, pounding and stirring until smooth. Gradually add olive
oil, lemon juice and vinegar, stirring vigorously. When smooth and
light, add salt and pepper to taste. Chill in a covered bowl before
using.

Serve with hot or cold seafoods and fried or boiled vegetables.

Variation: Replace bread with 1/2 cup ground almonds or walnuts, or
use 1-1/2 cups ground almonds or walnuts instead of the potatoes and
bread.

Blender method: Put all ingredients in jar of blender and blend at
moderate speed until ingredients are pulverised. Increase speed for a
few seconds until light and smooth. Do not blend too long at high
speed for the mixture heats and the oil separates.
