½ cup mayo (full-fat recommended for best creaminess)
¼ cup ketchup
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or dill pickle juice for a more savory tang)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to your preferred heat level, or omit for a milder fry sauce)
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (optional, for added umami)
Salt and pepper to taste

In a small mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, apple cider vinegar (or pickle juice), garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and Worcestershire sauce (if using).
Whisk all ingredients together thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Ensure there are no lumps.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings as needed. You might want a little more salt, pepper, or cayenne depending on your preference.
For best flavor, cover the bowl and refrigerate the fry sauce for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and deepen.

Makes about 3/4 cup.

Best served chilled.
