fry sauce recipe Sunset Swirl with Smoked Paprika Ribbon
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: Approximately 2 cups (10–12 servings) 1x
- Diet: General
Description
This easy fry sauce recipe, Sunset Swirl with Smoked Paprika Ribbon, is a creamy, smoky concoction that transforms everyday fries and burgers into a culinary delight. It is quick to make with everyday ingredients and promises a delicious experience for the whole family.
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup ketchup
- 1.5 tablespoons pickle relish (sweet or dill)
- 1 tablespoon white or apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.75 teaspoon smoked paprika
- pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- Combine The Base: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, pickle relish, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, aiming for a balanced tang and savory depth.
- Achieve The Sunset Swirl: Gently spoon the creamy base into your chosen serving bowl. Using a small spoon, carefully sprinkle the smoked paprika over the top in a swirling motion, or create a distinct ‘ribbon’ effect. For an extra touch, add a pinch of cayenne pepper within the swirl if you desire a subtle heat and a pop of color.
- Chill For Flavor: Cover the bowl securely and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This essential chilling time allows all the wonderful flavors to meld beautifully. If the sauce seems too thick after chilling, simply whisk in 0.5 to 1 teaspoon of water or milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve And Enjoy: Give your Sunset Swirl a final gentle stir just before presenting it. This versatile, family-friendly sauce is now ready to elevate your favorite crispy dippers or a quick protein meal.
Notes
Elevate flavor with premium ingredients. Adapt for dietary needs using vegan mayo, sugar-free ketchup, or gluten-free Worcestershire (great for low-carb). For an extra smooth sauce, briefly blend all ingredients (except paprika). Adjust tang with more vinegar, or add hot sauce for more depth. If chilled sauce is too thick, whisk in water or milk.
