French Onion Dip
285kcal
Ingredients
- 1 large white onion
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- 10 g fresh parsley
Method
- Slice your onions thinly. Heat your butter in a pan and then add the onions, cooking on low heat for 30 - 40 minutes until caramelized. The onions will be golden in color and soft. Stir the onions often while cooking to avoid them burning or sticking. To save time, you could prepare your onions ahead of time.1 large white onion, 2 tbsp butter
- Once the onions have cooled, diced them finely (you could blend them into a paste if you don't want any texture in your dip - I like to keep the onions with a bit of texture!).
- In a bowl, mix together the cream cheese and sour cream.½ cup cream cheese, 1 cup sour cream
- Add the onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and stir until combined.1 tsp garlic powder, salt and pepper
- Serve with a scattering of freshly chopped parsley and enjoy!10 g fresh parsley

Notes
I recommend tasting the dip and adjusting any of the ingredients according to your personal preferences.
I have seen some recipes use caramelized onion chutney for this dip, which would save you the time it takes to caramelize your onions. You could also batch-prepare caramelized onions beforehand to save time when making this dip!
