• Mayonnaise is the foundation of the sauce. Choose your favorite kind of mayonnaise, whether it’s Hellmann’s, Dukes, low fat, or whatever.

Want to create your own custom sweet potato fry dip? Mix and swap ingredients to create endless variations of this sauce for your fries and burgers. Here are a few ideas you can experiment with:

• Mayonnaise alternatives: I find the thick, rich texture of real mayonnaise works best, but you can swap in Miracle Whip or vegan mayo. And for a fry sauce without mayo, use Greek yogurt instead.
• Change the ratio of mayo and ketchup according to your preferences.
• Add spices: Salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper make great additions to this recipe sweet potato fries dipping sauce. Start with a sprinkle and continue adding more until you achieve your desired flavor.
• Turn up the heat: Prepare the sauce as hot and spicy as you’d like. Buffalo sauce, hot sauce, tabasco sauce, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, and chili powder are great ways to crank up the heat.
• Mustard: Add 1 teaspoon of yellow mustard or Dijon mustard for extra flavor.
• Honey: Stir 1 to 2 tablespoons clear honey into the sauce to emphasize the sweetness.
• Other juices: Not a fan of pickle juice? Substitute lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, or horseradish to give the sauce that kick of tanginess.
• Gluten-free: For a gluten-free sweet potato fry sauce, ensure all ingredients are certified gluten-free, especially the Worcestershire sauce.

This easy dipping sauce is good on everything fried and crispy – from sweet potato fries to French fries to onion rings and avocado fries.

We love it with zucchini chips, tostones, and breaded zucchini sticks.

Creating a French fry board is so much fun! Offer a different type of French fries and a variety of dipping sauces on a large platter.

Ketchup, honey mustard, and Velveeta cheese sauce are some of my favorite sauces to enjoy with fries.

This easy-to-make sweet potato fry dip is also perfect for dipping chicken tenders, chicken nuggets, and mozzarella sticks.

Or try adding it to burgers, sandwiches, grilled cheese, subs, or wraps.

How to store sweet potato fry dipping sauce

Store the dip in an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator.

When you’re ready to serve, simply give the sauce a good stir and enjoy cold!

How long does sweet potato fries dip last?

The dipping sauce will last for a week in the fridge.

You can make the recipe ahead of time, but again, make sure to eat it within 5 to 7 days.

The sauce won’t keep as long if it is left out at room temperature for extended periods of time or if you have double-dippers in the family.

In that case, just take out the amount you need and keep the rest in the refrigerator.

Can you freeze sweet potato fry dip?

I do not recommend freezing this sweet potato fry dip. It will separate when frozen and thawed, and have water condensation.
