I first tasted this dip at my sister Esther’s house, and I was hooked. When it’s in the oven, the heavenly aroma permeates the house, and often family members sneak a little here and there before the allotted time is up. I love that you can freeze it in small containers for later use. There are two options — one is a challah dip and one is more of a spread or topping. Your choice!

Prepare the Dip
Yields 2 cups
-
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Peel onions and garlic and slice in the food processor. Transfer to a 9- x 13-inch (20- x 30-cm) baking pan. Add seasonings and olive oil and mix together very well. Bake uncovered for an hour and a half until deeply brown, stirring every 20 minutes to ensure even baking. Add optional additional parsley 10 minutes before the end of baking, for more herb overtones. Cool and refrigerate.
-
I recommend taking out of the fridge about an hour before serving and/or warming a little on top of a pot or slow cooker.
Note:
In the recipe above, most of the oil is absorbed by the onions and garlic and it becomes more like a topping. If you prefer a more liquidy texture, keep all ingredients as is, but double the olive oil from 6 tablespoons to 12, or 3/4 cup.
Tip:
This doubles easily and freezes well. Keep in mind the proportions of 2 onions to 1 garlic. For a great serving idea, spread a piece of challah with avocado. Top with diced sun-dried tomatoes and onion-garlic dip. It’s amazing!

Onion Garlic Dip
I'm a little confused what it means to slice the onion and garlic in food processor? Do you mean pulse with the s blade a few times?Replies:
Yup. Pulse till sliced. -
Onions
I made this dip and it was well received all around, i was just wondering how come some of the onions turned green in the oven? How can I avoid that the next time I make it?Replies:
Hmmm. How long did you keep it in the oven.
After an hour and half, it was still green so I left it in for longer.
Hmmm. I never experienced that. I am gonna ask my crew.
