Prepare the Ingredients
- Start by chopping the onion and parsley very finely. Small pieces blend better into the sauce. Measure all ingredients before mixing. This makes the process smooth and easy.
Add the Mayonnaise
- Place one cup of mayonnaise into a mixing bowl. Use good quality mayonnaise for best taste. It creates the creamy base of the sauce.

Chill Before Serving
