Garlic Cilantro Aioli

4.5 from 10 votes

Back in 2016, when I was first starting off food Instagram, I met my homie Young Cho, who at the time was running a Korean-Vietnamese-Mexican fusion joint out of a convenience store called Phorale. Phorale was slanging Vietnamese sandwiches with beef bulgogi and Korean fried chicken, egg rolls with spicy pork bulgogi, loaded curly fries, and more. The best thing about all the different menu items was the garlic cilantro aioli that Young put on everything. The green sauce packed a fresh and herbaceous punch that really took everything to the next level. While I never got the exact recipe, this is my approximation of the sauce that I think is just as delicious and goes great on literally everything.

In my household, we like putting it on vermicelli bowls, spring rolls, Vietnamese sandwiches, tacos, and more!

With the fresh herbs, this will only last in your fridge for 3-5 days, but it should go way quicker than that!
