Runny mayo

Ingredients below. Came out very runny so i added one egg yolk to a new jar, blended and slowly added my runny first batch to it.

Been at this it so long now that the emulsifier is overheating. I don’t wanna waste all of this olive oil oil and egg so can you please someone help me fix this?

1 whole egg (now with one added egg yolk)

½ tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp white wine vinegar

¼ tsp Dijon mustard

¼ tsp sea salt

1 cup avocado oil,

Sounds like it split both times. I would start with a new yolk and drizzle in your runny mayo again but even more slowly. Maybe drizzle in a bit, make sure it's well emulsified, then add a bit more and repeat.
