How To Make Tartar Sauce
- Classic Tartar Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup chopped dill pickles
- 1/4 cup chopped pickled vegetables
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- Tartar Sauce Variations: Tuscan, South of the Border and Thai
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped basil leaves
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped oregano
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- pinch pinch red pepper flakes
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder
- 1 tablespoon cilantro, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon green or red chili sauce
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- Combine mayonnaise, pickles and vegetables in medium bowl.
- Stir in variations of your choice, or just stick with the original. Chill until ready to use. Serve with cooked shrimp*, fish, crab cakes or on a sandwich.
- *To cook my shrimp, I simply placed a pound of cleaned shrimp in a hot pain with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt and a bit of fresh pepper and cooked them over medium heat for 8 minutes or so, until bright pink and opaque. Serve the shrimp hot or cold, depending in your preference (I chose cold and chilled them until ready to serve).
- For the Tuscan variety, stir in the basil, oregano, olive oil and red pepper flakes.
- For the South of the Border variety, stir in the green onions and chipotle powder.
- For the Thai variety, stir in the cilantro, chili sauce and lime juice.
