These fries are a big dill!!
Dill Pickle is having it’s moment! A popular staple for Canadians as a potato chip flavour, these days we are dill pickle-ing all the things – soda, popcorn, pizza – and now we have dill pickle fries.
There were several versions available at Stampede this year, but I didn’t see any sweet potato fries. Since I feel this is a tragic oversight, I definitely used sweet potato. If, for whatever reason, you aren’t fond of sweet potato, obviously just use normal fries, but I think you’re missing out.
The dill pickle sauce is the star of the show; perfectly tangy and very
pickle-y. This is a slightly updated version of the one I used on my dill pickle pizza during another Stampede feature, and I will probably update the other recipe soon because this version is much better. Other than these fabulous fries, this is a great sauce to toss cauliflower wings in, or drizzle onto a dill pickle pizza.
