Keep on mixing, adding the vegetable oil very slowly to the mixture. If you add it too fast, the mixture will not thicken as well. As you keep on adding the oil and mixing, the melange will thicken. Carry on blending, moving the blade up and down, until you have a creamy and thick texture.
225 ml vegetable oil
Add the watercress and blend again until smooth. Season to taste with salt.
