Instructions

Make the Chive Dip:

  1. Mix the ingredients: In a small bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, chives, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Stir well: Mix until smooth and creamy.
  3. Chill: Refrigerate the dip until ready to serve.

Make the Onion Fritters:

  1. Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika (if using).
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together egg and milk.
  3. Combine: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
  4. Add onions: Toss the thinly sliced onions into the batter until they are well coated.

Fry the Fritters:

  1. Heat oil: In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C), about 1/4 inch deep. Test the temperature by dropping a small bit of batter into the oil—if it sizzles, the oil is ready.
  2. Fry the fritters: Using a spoon, drop small spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil. Press them down slightly with the back of the spoon to flatten slightly.
  3. Cook until golden: Fry for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Drain: Use a slotted spoon to remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Serve:

  1. Serve warm: Serve the fritters hot with the chilled chive dip on the side. Garnish with extra chopped chives if desired.

Enjoy!
