Roasted Onion Dip

<<

Roasted Onion Dip is an easy appetizer recipe that can be served with Pita Crisps and fresh vegetables. This dairy appetizer could be made into a pareve recipe by substituting kosher mayonnaise for sour cream.

Ingredients:

• 2 large onions, peeled and cut into quarters (Vidalia onions are best)
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 tsp. salt (using half at a time)
• 1 whole head of garlic
• 1/3 cup sour cream* (lower fat if possible)
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tbsp. lemon juice

In a large bowl, drizzle oil and 1/2 tsp. salt over onion and mix together. Remove white paper skin from garlic without separating the cloves and wrap the whole bulb in tin foil. Place onion and wrapped up garlic on a baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour. Cool for 10-15 minutes.

Chop up roasted onion. Separate garlic cloves and squeeze to extract pulp. Discard garlic skins.

Combine onion, garlic, 1/2 tsp. salt, sour cream, parsley and lemon juice in a large bowl. Stir ingredients until they are well blended. Cover and refrigerate for an hour before serving.

Yield: 2 cups (approx. 8 servings)

*Note: if desired, use whole milk plain yogurt or plain Greek yogurt
