The secret ingredient to Polly’s triple chocolate chip brownies? Mellow Yellow Mayonnaise! Just one tablespoon adds extra oil, yolk and salt, giving the brownies a fudgier texture, a shiny crackly top and a subtle savouriness that complements the milk, dark and white chocolate.

Using Polly’s homemade Mellow Yellow Mayonnaise brings a gorgeous buttery flavour and vibrant colour that takes these brownies to the next level (see the linked video below for the method). It might sound like a wild card, but once you try it, you won’t bake brownies any other way

Polly’s chicken fat mayo is a bit of kitchen magic, a silky, savoury dressing made from the by‑product of a roast chicken and whipped up in under a minute. Using a homemade Mellow Yellow mayonnaise makes it even more special, bringing a slightly nutty flavour and that signature vibrant golden colour.

Here, it’s served with a classic chicken‑and‑chips combo, but trust us: this mayo is just as good spooned alongside a roast dinner or drizzled over anything that needs a hit of richness and comfort. Next level deliciousness!

This gorgeous yellow chicken stew is inspired by a French Provencal fish stew called Bourride, whereby aioli is whisked into the stew at the end for body and a fiery whack of garlic. The buttery flavour of Mellow Yellow cold pressed rapeseed oil in the aioli is essential for tempering the fiery raw garlic, and of course gives the stew an even more vibrant yellow colour. Sunshine in a bowl!

We tasked ex-delicious mag recipe creator, Pollyannna Coupland to create a mayo masterclass for us, illustrating the basics of mayo making, plus four delicious ways to enjoy it. Mayonnaise is so much more than a delicious sauce, it’s a brilliant binder and works a little technical wizardry when it comes to adding texture and flavour to different dishes. The one batch of mayo below makes all four of Polly’s recipes.
