Once the mixture is completely white and then changes color, remove it from heat and let it cool.

Add salt according to taste, 250 ml corn oil, and 100 ml milk to the mixture.

Clean 8 cloves of garlic and set aside, along with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.

In a jar, add the cooled base mixture, 8 cloves of garlic, and half a cup of milk, and blend to form a garlic paste.

After the garlic paste is formed, add the remaining milk and blend again until mixed.

With the machine running, slowly drizzle in 1 cup of corn oil until fully incorporated and the sauce thickens.

Adjust the sauce as per your requirement and add salt to taste and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice at the end to avoid milk curdling.

Remove the garlic sauce from the jar and it's ready to serve.
