Roasted Garlic and Lime Aïoli

Ingredients

• 2 large garlic bulbs
• 2 teaspoons olive oil

• 1 teaspoon grated lime rind
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Scoop out pulp; mash and stir until smooth.
2. Combine roasted garlic and remaining ingredients in a small bowl; stir well. Cover and chill 2 hours.
