Preparation

Step 1

Set a strainer over a heatproof bowl. In a large saucepan, heat the oil with the shallots, scallions, and onion and fry over moderate high heat, stirring frequently until the onions are browned, 18-20 minutes. Carefully pour the onions into the strainer and shake off the excess oil. Spread the onions on a paper towel lined plate to drain. Let cool for 5 minutes. Reserve the oil for another use.

In another bowl, fold the onions into the sour cream, season with salt and pepper.

Serve with thick cut potato chips, pita chips, bagel chips or celery sticks.
