Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons oil (extra virgin olive oil)
- 2 large yellow onions, finely chopped (about 1 1/2 pounds)
- 3/4 cup sour cream (low-fat is fine if you like)
- 3/4 cup Greek yogurt (low-fat is fine if you like)
- 3 teaspoons dehydrated onion powder (salt-free, natural) or 3 teaspoons onion powder, granules (salt-free,natural)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, very scant
How to Make
-
Step 1: In a large thick-bottomed skillet, over medium heat, saute the chopped onions in the olive oil along with a couple pinches of salt.
-
Step 2: Stir occasionally with a wood or metal spatula, and cook until the onions are deeply golden, brown, and caramelized - roughly 40-50 minutes. Set aside, and let cool.
-
Step 3: In the meantime, whisk together the sour cream, yogurt, onion powder, and salt. The important thing is to add whatever onion powder you are using to taste. Add a bit at a time until it tastes really good.
-
Step 4: Set aside until the caramelized onions have cooled to room temperature.
-
Step 5: Stir in 2/3 of the caramelized onions, scoop into a serving bowl, and top with the remaining onions.
