An absolute classic, this French onion dip is creamy, savoury, and surprisingly easy to make from scratch. Slow-cooked onions do the heavy lifting, making it perfect for crackers, veggies, or a last-minute platter.
You will need
Serves 8
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 brown onion, thinly diced
- 2 cloves garlic, diced
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 bunch chives, diced

Place the olive oil in a pan and bring to a medium heat.
-
Step 2
Add in the onions and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and cook on medium-low for 15 minutes.
-
Step 3
Add the garlic and cook until golden but not heavy colour. Turn the heat off and let cool.
-
Step 4
Add all the ingredients together in a bowl and mix gently together. Be careful not to over-whip the sour cream, as it can break down and turn to liquid.
