Three Onion Dip Recipe

Three Onion Dip Recipe

  • 2 tablespoons, plus 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 2 medium onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 anchovy fillets packed in oil, drained
  • 1 teaspoon mushroom powder (optional)
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped, divided
  • 4 scallions, green and white parts separated
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Potato chips (for serving)
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions, anchovies, mushroom powder, if using, and 1 tablespoon garlic. Cook, stirring often, until onions are golden brown and softened, 40–45 minutes.
  2. If onions start to burn or stick, reduce heat and add water a splash at a time, scraping up browned bits. Let cool, then finely chop.
  3. Meanwhile, heat a dry medium skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high heat. Toss scallion whites with remaining 1 teaspoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, until charred, about 5 minutes. Let cool; finely chop. Thinly slice greens.
  4. Mix onion mixture, scallion whites and greens, mayonnaise, yogurt, sour cream, chives, Worcestershire, and remaining garlic in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Serve with chips.
