Ingredients

Fry Sauce Ingredients

  • ¾ cup full-fat mayonnaise
  • ⅓ cup ketchup
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tbsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ½ tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise, ketchup, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk these ingredients together until well combined and smooth.
  2. Season and Adjust: Taste the sauce and add salt as needed, adjusting seasoning according to your preference to balance the flavors.
  3. Chill the Sauce: Place the prepared sauce in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to chill, enhancing its taste.
  4. Serve: Serve the fry sauce with your favorite hot fries or as a dipping condiment for other snacks. The sauce can also be used immediately if you’re in a hurry, though chilling is recommended for best flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute apple cider vinegar with pickle brine for a tangier flavor.
  • Adjust the cayenne pepper to reduce or increase spiciness based on your heat preference.
  • Worcestershire sauce is optional but adds a deeper umami flavor.
  • Keep refrigerated and consume within 3-4 days for optimal freshness.
