Pan Fried Onion Dip

It is hard to go wrong with an Ina recipe. I don’t think I’ve made a recipe from her that I haven’t enjoyed. This recipe for Pan Fried Onion Dip is one of my favorites. Caramelizing the onions adds a ton of flavor and depth. Serve with your favorite dipping chip or cracker.

Pan Fried Onion Dip
12 servings

2 large yellow onions
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise, not light

1. Cut the onions in half and then slice them into 1/8-inch thick half-rounds. (You will have about 3 cups of onions.) Heat the butter and oil in a large saute pan over medium heat.

2. Add the onions, cayenne, salt, and pepper and saute for 10 minutes.

3. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 more minutes until the onions are browned and caramelized. Allow the onions to cool.

4. Place the cream cheese, sour cream and mayonnaise in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat until smooth.

5. Add the onions and mix well. Taste for seasonings. Serve at room temperature.
