When you need a good party dip, it’s hard to go wrong with something creamy, savory, and easy to scoop. And what’s a more classic combo than sour cream and onion? This Red Onion Party Dip is a simple homemade twist that brings plenty of flavor without requiring a long list of ingredients. It’s the kind of dip that fits right in at a casual get-together, game day, or cozy night in.
The key to the flavor is giving the onions some time in the oven. Roasting them softens the onions and brings out their natural sweetness, while the edges turn lightly golden. Once they’ve cooled, they’re chopped up and mixed into a creamy base along with a little garlic and lemon juice.
After everything is mixed together, the dip gets a short rest in the refrigerator before serving. That extra time gives the flavors a chance to come together and makes the dip nice and chilled. A sprinkle of fresh chives is an easy way to add a little color and extra bite!
Serve this dip with potato chips, pretzels, or your favorite crackers. It’s easy enough to make ahead and keep in the fridge until you’re ready to put it out, which makes it a handy recipe to have when you’re hosting. If you like classic onion dip, this homemade version is definitely worth trying.

Kristy started as a food editor with 12 Tomatoes in 2017, though she’s been working with our parent company Greater Good since 2007 in roles ranging from product copywriter to marketing manager. (Jack of all trades and all that.) When she’s not developing recipes or writing about food, you might find her in her garden, at the potter’s wheel, or tending to her sourdough starter. She loves cheese, historic homes, whales, and a great farmers market, though not necessarily in that order. Kristy studied Creative Writing at University of California, Santa Cruz. (Go banana slugs!)
Rachael has been with 12 Tomatoes since 2016, starting on the social media team and working her way to Director of Social Media. In recent years, she has shifted into more hands-on work in recipe development and video production. Born and raised in the heart of the Midwest, Rachael now calls Washington state home. Outside the kitchen you can find her rock climbing in the Cascades, carving her latest block print, or searching for Seattle’s best bowl of ramen.
Mark has been creating video and photo content for 12 Tomatoes since 2014, starting out as a video production coordinator, then the manager of video and eventually became the Director of Creative for 12 Tomatoes. He has created thousands of videos for 12 Tomatoes over the years, ranging from simple recipes to online classes to fun kitchen tips and tutorials. Mark grew up in the Pacific Northwest, studied in Paris, taught English in Korea, and went to grad school for cinema production in Chicago before making his way back to the lovely Seattle area where he now calls home. When he doesn’t have a camera in his hands, you’ll find him going on adventures with his wife and a goofy dog named Jet, traveling, cooking, playing with his cats, feeding his chickens, reading a good book or keeping up with his love of cinema.
