Fried Pickle Dip

By:

Ingredients
  • ¾ cup cornichons, chopped
  • 5 dill pickles, diced
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella, divided
  • 1/3 cup pickle juice
  • 2 tsp salt
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • Fresh dill, for serving
  • Potato chips, for serving
Instructions
  • In a large bowl, beat together the sour cream, mayonnaise, and cream cheese until smooth. Add 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella, salt, pickle juice, chopped cornichons, and diced dill pickles. Mix until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  • Pour the mixture into a 6-inch ceramic baking dish and cover completely with aluminum foil. Pour the water into the inner pot of your pressure cooker. Place the baking dish on a trivet inside the inner pot.
  • Pressure Cook on High for 3 minutes. Allow the pot to naturally release for 5 minutes, then flip the valve to release any remaining pressure.
  • Carefully remove the baking dish and trivet from the inner pot, using oven mitts for safety. Discard the water from the inner pot.
  • Remove the aluminum foil from the baking dish. In a small bowl, toss the panko breadcrumbs with the remaining ½ cup of shredded mozzarella. Sprinkle this mixture over the top of the dip. Place the trivet back in the inner pot and set the ceramic dish on top.
  • Air Fry at 385˚F / 195˚C for 2-4 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are toasted and the cheese is melted. Carefully remove the dish from the inner pot.
  • Sprinkle the dip with fresh dill and serve warm with potato chips or crudités!
