How to make Pancetta, Mizuna, and Tomato Sandwiches with Green Garlic Aïoli

For aioli:Blend olive oil, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoons fleur de sel in processor until garlic is minced. Add 2 tablespoons mayonnaise and blend well. Transfer to small bowl; whisk in remaining mayonnaise and lemon juice.

Do ahead: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.

For sandwiches:Preheat oven to 232°C. Arrange pancetta slices in single layer on 2 large rimmed baking sheets. Bake until crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
