It is served mainly on its own with a huge piece of bread to sop up the juices. It could also be served as an accompaniment to cutlets and pieces of pork.

Aioli

The very basic form of aioli is just a blend of garlic mayonnaise. However, the original aioli does not have eggs as part of the components.

The shellfish, potatoes, and mound of vegetables are perfectly dunked in it. Since time immemorial, aioli is always served on Fridays.
