Fry Sauce for French Fries

A good sauce should never be overlooked, it can take a simple meal from ‘meh’ to ‘wow’! Of course, the best thing to dip in this sauce are crispy french fries, but potato wedges and crudités will also work well.

It will also work really well when added to burgers!

How long does fry dip last?

Once you have made the sauce, cover it and keep it in the fridge if not serving it straight away. It will keep well for about 3-5 days, just give it a little stir before you serve it.

If you have any leftovers, just cover it back up and pop it in the fridge.
