Tips:

Choose fresh and flavorful ingredients, especially the cilantro and jalapeños. This will ensure that your aioli has the best possible taste.
If you don't have mayonnaise on hand, you can make your own by blending one large egg yolk with 1 cup of neutral oil, such as grapeseed or canola oil. Slowly drizzle the oil into the egg yolk while blending until the mixture is thick and creamy.
To make a spicier aioli, use more jalapeños or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
If you want a creamier aioli, add more mayonnaise or sour cream.
For a tangier aioli, add a squeeze of lemon juice or white vinegar.
Serve the aioli immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Cilantro jalapeño aioli is a versatile condiment that can be used with a variety of dishes. It's perfect for adding a pop of flavor to tacos, burgers, sandwiches, and salads. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for vegetables or chips. No matter how you choose to use it, this aioli is sure to be a hit!
