Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large yellow or white onion, thinly sliced
- Kosher salt
- 1/2 cup sweet vermouth
- Neutral cooking oil, for frying
- 1 cup sour cream
- 3/4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 pound fingerling potatoes
- 1/4 cup sustainable caviar, for serving
Instructions
- In a large cast-iron pan over medium heat, add the butter and heat until melted. Add the onions and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook the onions until they are caramelized, about 20 minutes. Deglaze with the vermouth and reduce until dry, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, preheat a fryer or a large Dutch oven filled with 3 inches oil to 350 degrees F. Line a sheet tray with a wire rack. Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a boil.
- Add the sour cream, cream cheese, garlic powder and onion powder to a food processor, then add the cooled onions. Process until combined and smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Pour into a serving dish and refrigerate; stir again before serving.
- Add the fingerling potatoes to the boiling water and cook for 12 minutes. Strain and set aside on a sheet tray or large plate until they are just cool enough to handle. Gently crush the potatoes, but still hold their shape. Fry until crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain on the wire rack and season with salt.
- Serve the crispy potatoes on a platter with the onion dip and caviar on the side.

After watching Eric make this on guy’s show, I wanted to try it. I brought it to my daughters for an Easter app and everyone enjoyed it. I’ll never make onion dip from a packet again. It’s after midnight and I wish I had some right now. Sadly, it’s still at my daughters. Oh well, maybe tomorrow I’ll go over for a visit .
