I have looked though all the caramelized onion dip recipes on zaar. Mine is only a little different, but we find it is an very tasty. Ingredients:
2 large onions |
1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick) |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar |
1 pinch thyme |
4 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
Directions:
1. Cut the onions in half, then slice the into 1/8-inch-thick half rounds(You will have about 3 cups of onions.).
2. Heat the butter and oil in large saute pan over medium heat. Add onions, cayenne, salt and pepper and saute for 10 minutes.
3. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, until the onions are browned and caramelized.
4. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and thyme and continue cooking until the balsamic has evaporated, about 1 minute. Allow the onions to cool.
5. Place the cream cheese, sour cream and mayonnaise in the bowl. Beat with electric beater until smooth.
6. Then stir in the onions, by hand.
7. Taste for seasonings. Serve at room temperature. The dip can be made up to this point 3 days ahead; cover tightly, refrigerate.
