Dina's home-made mayonnaise

Separate an egg putting the yolk into a mixing bowl on its own.

Take a small cupful of your favourite olive oil in one hand and a fork in the other and slowly drizzle the oil onto the egg yolk as you are stirring with the fork. Very very slowly. (it will curdle if you do this too hastily)

Stir in a few drops of freshly-squeezed lemon juice when you have the required volume of mayonnaise in your bowl.

Season.

Try a Russian potato salad with it:
Cubes of (still firm) boiled potato, fresh peas from the garden boiled lightly, pieces of carrot boiled but still firm. Mix all three with the home made mayonnaise. Magic!
