I find the Mayo on fries thing to be an odd idea, mind you here in Scotland fries with curry sauce is very popular so who am I to criticise.

Look at the ingredients.
It's eggs and potatoes, basically.

Eggs and oil with a bit of lemon and salt.

Want a real treat, use truffle oil in the mayo. Fries and truffle oil is truly a match made in heaven

Not to turn this into a thread about food (which is one of my other passions), but making mayonnaise and aioli is something that I am better at than playing Gypsy jazz lol. Egg yolk, fresh squeezed lemon juice, a beautiful EVOO (or grape seed oil for a milder flavor and better emulsion. Canola oil is probably most common, but I like a good robust olive oil), garlic clove, salt, and a tsp of Dijon mustard, makes a nice Provencal aioli. I used to use a food processor but I sometimes would end up with a broken mess. I bought a mortar and pestle and voila! Silky luxurious aioli. I put it on a lot of things. Seafood, chicken, vegetables, etc.

And I agree with @Jazzaferri. Truffle oil is a thing of beauty.

I use Avocado oil for a light mayo and unfiltered EVOO for aioli.

Now we have truly hijacked this thread, to get back on topic, getting mayo with fries in Amsterdam was easier than catsup (ketchup)
