Fry sauce is a creamy dipping sauce for french fries, but it can also be used as a dip for onion rings, potato wedges, chicken nuggets even appetizers like mini pigs in blankets.
You really can't go wrong with this seasoned mayo sauce!
Fry Sauce
Fry sauce is one of the many variations of a ketchup and mayo mixture, such as Thousand Island dressing, Chick-Fil-A Sauce and Yum Yum Sauce. A similar Mayoketchup is popular in Puerto Rico and a Mayochup is now in production. This is a more zested up condiment than that though.
This particular fry sauce recipe adds sour cream for richer results.
While the sauce is created for dunking fries, it is also fabulous as a dip for my Copycat Long John Silver's Chicken Planks or even Mini Pigs in a Blanket.

Fry Sauce Variations
Want to add even a bit more zip to your fry sauce? Try adding a little dill pickle juice or a couple splashes of hot sauce. Both are great additions.
Some have been known to substitute Ranch dressing for the mayonnaise too. In that case, I would probably go with a more basic fry sauce and skip adding a few of the seasonings in this recipe, such as the garlic and onion powders... and probably the mustard.
As long as you have mayonnaise and ketchup in there and you like the results, there is really no "wrong" way to make it. For a dipping sauce without ketchup, try my Creamy Sweet Chili Sauce Dip.
