Here is a simple recipe I threw together the other day while making dinner. I had made a batch of my home-made fries, but forgot to make a dip to go along with them. So, I went to the refrigerator and began throwing a few things together and the result is a pretty good imitation of a drive-in french fry sauce. I also ended-up putting this sauce on the hamburgers as well. Although the measurements do not need to be exact, what you are looking at is basically a 2:1 ratio of Mayo to Ketchup, with the pickle sauce adjusted to suit your taste.
- Mayo
- Ketchup
- Pickle Sauce (juice from your pickle jar)
- Put ½ cup mayo in bowl
- Add ¼ cup ketchup and mix together until it takes on a pinkish hue (see photo)
- Add 3 teaspoons of pickle juice and mix well

I've never had anything like that. sounds really good.
Interesting. I've never had a french fry sauce before other than ketchup but it looks really good.
Hope you having a safe and happy 4th!
Cactus Jack Splash: I'm right there with you :)
Ann: It is. I even use it on the burgers instead of ketchup and mayo.
BeadedTail: It's actually very good. If you're not sure, you can make a very small batch and try it: maybe a tablespoon of mayo, a teaspoon and a half of ketchup, and half a teaspoon of pickle juice. That way if you decide you don't like it, you're not out a lot of condiments.
I'll stick with ketchup.
That sounds great. I'll have to give it a try.
Karen & Gerard Zemek: Funny, that's just what my youngest said. She loves ketchup on her fries.
Grampy: I'm sure you'll like it:)

What is pickle sauce?
People Peeves: If you bring out a jar of pickles from your refrigerator, the liquid that your pickles are floating around in, is the Pickle Sauce. Just take your 3 teaspoons from there. Great question and I'll amend the recipe in case anyone else might have the same question.
Thanks!
