The mixture has in it:
2 egg yolks
225ml veg oil

Any ideas greatly appreciated!

    Have you whisked it for long enough?

    Also the recipe I use only has 275ml of oil to two egg yolks.

  • add the liquid slowly to another egg yolk it should emulsify, if not repeat with another egg yolk

    Do you still have the egg whites?
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    I'd make bread and stick it in at the mixing stage. My solution to any food item I don't know what to do with. I did it with some marked down single cream that wasn't going to get used otherwise the other week, very nice results.

    an old chef tip I used to use is to add a tblespoon of water and another one if that doesn't work and keep whisking.

    Always remember to only add oil a tblesppon at a time then whisk
