WOW. This one is SO good. I used to be a big fan of sour cream and onion dip (you know, just sour cream mixed with that onion powder packet thing) with some Ruffles. But this recipe definitely rivals that! Homemade, still warm, crispy potato chips plus hour-long caramelized onions mixed with Siggi’s triple cream plain yogurt and some spices = the ideal snack (especially for Sunday football games this fall?! Not like I watch football, but I’m imagining that could be a good snack for that situation).
So, first up: potato chips.
I used Yukon gold potatoes and a mandoline slicer (which I think is crucial that you have), and seasoned with salt and Trader Joe’s Everything but the Bagel seasoning (AKA the best seasoning in all the land). They were roasted on a sheet pan in a single layer, not touching, at 450 F for about 30 minutes. If you have a normal oven that functions properly (forever convinced mine is not one of those ovens), you may only need 15-20 minutes. Also crucial that you stay near the oven and watch those puppies because they will burn super quick. I didn’t flip them at any point – they seemed to get crisped on both sides without flipping.
Now, the dip.
Caramelized onions take a super long time, but are well worth the wait! You don’t have to be constantly watching them, either. I used an entire yellow onion, sliced, and just plopped them in a pan with some olive oil and salt on low/medium, and moved them around every 10 or so minutes until they were nice and soft and caramelly (not a word, but it should be) and delicious. In total, it was about 50 minutes.
THEN, I mixed with Siggi’s triple cream yogurt (could be an entire blog post on its own, with how delicious that yogurt is), salt, Trader Joe’s onion salt, and garlic powder. Siggi’s is my favorite yogurt brand because of their dedication to keeping their yogurts low sugar, with simple and natural ingredients. I have always been a plain yogurt lover (I love the tang), but they also have many fruit flavored yogurts that are just flavored with the fruit alone! Technically, Siggi’s yogurt is called “skyr”, which is an Icelandic thick yogurt (similar to Greek yogurt in consistency).
Let me know if you make this one! I’d love to hear about it!
