1 serving (medium) of Yogurt with caramelized onion (120 g) has 110 calories. That works out to 92 calories per 100 g. It contains 9.4 g of carbs, 4.9 g of protein, 5.9 g of fat and 0.6 g of fiber. Its 0.5 µg of B12 covers 21% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 32 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Yogurt with caramelized onion is a savory-sweet preparation made by stirring slowly cooked, softened onions into plain yogurt. Rather than belonging to one clearly defined regional tradition, it is an easy-to-adapt combination found in home cooking and served as a dip or side.
The yogurt’s cool tang balances the onions’ mellow sweetness. Serve it with flatbread or crisp vegetables, as part of a mezze spread, or alongside grilled vegetables and meat. It has a modest amount of protein—4.1 g per 100 g—and the yogurt gives it a creamy, satisfying base. For a lighter version, cook the onions with less oil and use plain yogurt; add the onions after they have cooled slightly so the mixture stays thick.

Yogurt with caramelized onion is made by folding cooled, slowly cooked onions into plain yogurt. Cook sliced onions over low heat until soft and golden, then let them cool before mixing; adding them hot can make the yogurt runny or cause it to separate.
Yogurt with caramelized onion pairs well with grilled meat, roasted vegetables, flatbread, and rice dishes. Serve it as a dip or a savory side; a drizzle of olive oil and a little fresh parsley make an easy finishing touch.
Yes, yogurt with caramelized onion can be prepared ahead and refrigerated in a covered container. The onion flavor will deepen as it sits, so stir it before serving and keep it chilled rather than leaving it out on the table.
Yogurt with caramelized onion is usually served cold or at room temperature. The onions are cooked first and cooled before they are mixed into the yogurt, which keeps the dip creamy and lets the sweet-savory onion flavor stand out.
Yes, Greek yogurt works well for yogurt with caramelized onion and gives it a thicker, tangier texture. If it seems too stiff, loosen it with a small spoonful of water or olive oil before folding in the cooled onions.
No, yogurt with caramelized onion is not necessarily the same as French onion dip. It is typically made by mixing cooked onions into plain yogurt, while many French onion dips use sour cream or mayonnaise and may include a packaged seasoning mix.
No, you do not need sugar for yogurt with caramelized onion. Slowly cooking sliced onions draws out their natural sweetness; keep the heat low and stir regularly so they soften and brown rather than burn.
To keep yogurt with caramelized onion from turning watery, start with thick yogurt and cook the onions until their moisture has evaporated. Cool the onions completely before mixing them in, and add salt shortly before serving because it can draw water from the yogurt.
Yes, yogurt with caramelized onion makes a ready-to-serve dip for pita, crackers, or raw vegetables. Spoon it into a shallow bowl, add a little olive oil, and serve it chilled so it stays thick enough for dipping.
Yogurt with caramelized onion tastes savory with a gentle sweetness from the slowly cooked onions, balanced by yogurt's tang. It should not taste sugary; add black pepper or a pinch of chili if you want a sharper contrast.
