Dweepika- I learnt a new hack for instant mayo/spread which I would like to share. 

To plant based curd add grated garlic(amount based on your liking) and salt to taste. If the curd is thick no problem of not add some nut powder till you get the required consistency. I added almond powder.
Your spread us ready.  I used it for a veg wrap and my better half didn't realize it was curd😛. Tastes pretty much like a mayo and is ready in just 3-5 mins.

Beatrice- Another method is there.
1.) 100 gms of cashews.
2.) 2 or 3 small onions or 1 medium size big onion.
3.) 2 pods of garlic.
4.) 5 to 6 drops of  lemon juice.
5.) 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
6.) A pinch of salt.
Grind it.
Veg mayonnaise is ready.
