 I often wondered what this sauce was, I see it very often when we are out.

Combine 1 pasteurized egg yolk, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 Tablespoon lemon juice, 1 Tablespoon water, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, salt and pepper in a food processor , with the motor running, blend in 1/2 cup olive oil until smooth.

Place the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the eggs and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fry the eggs to your liking. Place the eggs on top of the pasta and serve immediately.

I was looking for a lemon aioli for my artichokes and found this one too-now I know what I'm going to do with my fresh basil!

 Aioli is French for ai, "garlic," and oli, "oil"—basically mayonnaise seasoned with garlic. It's delicious with lots of things. I especialyy like it with crab cakes and other seafood.

I'm going to make this for dinner tomorrow night.  I don't have pecorino cheese, so I'll use parmesan, but I'm adding bacon too!
