    This is a nice 1, great reviews in the food forum. https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/298231092
    I like Crucials garlic mayo as well https://www.porkys.market/gluten-free/crucials-sauces. Some Supermarket own brands are fairly good as well. The best 1 you will get is a homemade 1 IMO though. I tried the Hellman's and it was ok, nothing special.

    Don't expect anything from life, just be grateful to be alive.

    2 tbls heinz mayo 2 crushed cloves garlic
    1 tbls water.
    Tinker with ratio.
    For Falafel white sauce add 1 teaspoon dry marjoram , pinchh herbs provencale, pepper.

    Best one.
    Heinz mayo, add finely chopped Jalapeno peppers from a jar,
    Perfect for burgers


  • Registered Users Posts: 366 ✭✭yamaha4life


    Lynchs garlic mayo is decent stocked in dunnes
    I usually have at least two jars of roast garlic and herb from lidl find it the best that ive tried anyway

    I often make the garlic sauce from Cooking Club doner kebab recipe, it's quick and easy.


    3 tablespoons mayonnaise
    1 tablespoon natural yogurt
    1 teaspoon olive oil
    1 teaspoon garlic powder
    pinch of salt
    pinch of dried mixed herbs
    1 tablespoon water


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,940 ✭✭✭sporina


    thanks for all the replies...

    not interested in making my own.. but thanks..
    not a lover of Heinz products but might give it a lash if I can't get the Hellmans roasted garlic one.. (none in my local tesco)..
    don't think I can get the Crucials brand down here..

    This is the one I make too and its lovely.

    Shop bought, SuperValu do Abrakebabra garlic sauce. Eddie Rockets also sell garlic sauce in a bottle. I don't find either to be very like the sauce you get from the place, but it's quite tasty regardless.

    You can get them in the Chinese wholesalers.

    Think there is one out in ballymount.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,413 ✭✭✭Toulouse


    Lidl do a really delicious roasted garlic and black pepper mayonnaise, it’s part of their deluxe range. I always have a jar in my fridge.

  • Registered Users Posts: 254 ✭✭forestgirl


    Home grown garlic(nothing like it)
    Fresh squeezed lemon
    Tiny drop of extra Virgin olive oil

    Crush garlic on a mini herb grating plate the oil makes this a little easier and add lemon its soo simple but very versatile strong you can't buy this stuff,add parsley or chives from garden to

    Stokes garlic mayo is nice.
    Sherridans sell it.

    Sherridans the cheese shop, I've only found them in Dublin and Galway

    To be honest, it's nice enough, but it's a bit pricey. Nothing too different.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Politics Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 12,110 CMod ✭✭✭✭Dizzyblonde


    Sheridans are in some Dunnes supermarkets, and you can buy online from them too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,449 ✭✭✭✭pwurple


    Dunnes bandon road has a sheridans sporina.

    The hellman's roasted garlic I found way too sweet personally, and not very garlicky. But I don't like hellmans anyway. Prefer heinz or homemade.

    I crush a clove of garlic and stir it into mayo or yoghurt, but yeah, sometimes that's not a faff you want.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Politics Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 12,110 CMod ✭✭✭✭Dizzyblonde


    The nicest shop bought one I've tried is Taste Of Goodness garlic mayo, it's made in Kilkenny and according to Google you can get it in Supervalu.

    https://shop.supervalu.ie/shopping/health-wellness-gluten-free-taste-goodness-garlic-mayo-450-ml-/p-1489336004

    Dealz also seem to be stocking it now, according to their Facebook page

    thanks for all the replies... will look out for Lynches, Stokes and Taste of Goodness.. see what I can find here in Cork City..


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 77,020 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    You can get the Blenders one in here, too: http://thefoodcentre.co/ - they have those industrial sized buckets, but also "smaller" 5l containers, too. Another good one is the Dunnes one, but I haven't seen it in ages.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 11,645 Mod ✭✭✭✭igCorcaigh


    Has anyone tried making the garlic sauce that is basically garlic in an oil/water emulsion?

    I don't have a food processor, just a nutribullet. I'm not sure if that will work.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Politics Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 12,110 CMod ✭✭✭✭Dizzyblonde


    I just remembered Nature's Oils - their garlic mayo is amazing. Up here Dublin Meat Company sell it, but a lot of other butchers do too. Mid Cork Foods distribute it down your way OP.

    I get Crucials in Iceland over here (UK). They must think I'm weird as that and the Sciracha sauce is the only things I buy in the place. I may be wrong but I'd be surprised if there were no Iceland shops down there

    I'd say the Nutribullet would work quite well.

    Thanks. I must try it.

    I think that is what's used in traditional shawarma, rather than the artificial creamy stuff used on kebabs here.

    They have a name for it in Lebanon, which I forget, but it is essentially the Arabic name for garlic.

    I like a runny garlic sauce, like the kind you get in Eddie Rockets.

    Would any of the recommendations here fit that bill?

    I think the closest would be the one in the Cooking Club.

  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Politics Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 12,110 CMod ✭✭✭✭Dizzyblonde


    Yes, the white one is quite runny and extremely garlicky. A friend of mine who I shared the recipe with makes it every week and has it with fish, chicken etc.

    Yes. The white kebab sauce. It's so easy to make but it has a mighty flavour.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Politics Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 12,110 CMod ✭✭✭✭Dizzyblonde


    sporina, have you had any luck finding one you're happy with?

    not got any yet.. ekk.. the craving went away lol..

    but I do plan to go to DS Bishopstown some day I have a chance to get the Stoke's brand in their Sheirdans dept.. it sounds fab.. wanna try that first


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,224 ✭✭✭zerosugarbuzz


    The Abrakebabra garlic sauce is the nicest I've tasted, quite thick though but you could mix it with water I guess to change the consistency. I had the Eddie Rockets wing sauce last night, really enjoyed it, made a pleasant change from Franks Hot Sauce.

    thanks - i don't like the look of the ingredients list on the Abrakababra one though..

    You could make your own mayonaisse. It's incredibly simple. I've only started doing it and can't believe I haven't been doing it for years.

    Belgian style mayonaisse:
    2 egg yolks.
    2 tsp of mustard
    1tsp of white vinegar

    Whisk this together.

    Add sunflower or veg oil, while constantly whisking. A few drops at time at first, making sure it emulsifies properly. The more oil you add the thicker it will get. Stop at whatever consistency you want.

    Season with salt and pepper. You can add garlic, chipotle or whatever you want at this point.

    You can use lemon juice instead of vinegar, but never use olive oil IMO the flavour is too strong

    they/them/theirs


    And so on, and so on …. - Slavoj Žižek

    [NOT FOOD SAFETY ADVICE] If mine lasts (uneaten) three days it goes from the fridge to the bin the night of day 3 or morning of day 4.

    It's delicious, but a bottle / jar of shop bought stuff is always in the press /fridge

    No idea. I eat it pretty quick though.

    2 egg yolks worth of mayonaisse makes about 300ml.

    Eddie Rockets have a garlic sauce available to buy in SuperValu.

    I can’t recommend it because I haven’t found it yet!

    They haven't had it in my SuperValu - just the Abrakebabra one (they are very similar tbh). You can get the Eddie Rockets one in your nearest Eddies - they are selling them at the counter in mine. Along with their secret sauce.

    got the Hellmans one - wasn't my 1st choice but could not get any of those I wanted - don't really wanna bother ordering on line..

    not exactly what i am looking for - would prefer something less thick - better flavour..

    could try the heinz one but it has chives in it which i don't like..

    don't wanna buy numerous bottles of the stuff - i'm the only one in the house who would use it - and if i don't like em - they would be wasted and i hate waste

    oh well

    Thin it out with a little milk and add a bit of roasted garlic or garlic paste/powder to it. Give it a good shake and use more of both until it suits your taste.
