Fish sticks are a staple at my house currently (LOL) so this homemade tartar sauce recipe comes in handy! Although this easy tartar sauce is great on all sorts of dishes like fish tacos, salmon burgers, tuna cakes, or air fryer fish. Level up your meal with homemade hushpuppies.
Tartar sauce is a creamy mayo-based sauce flavored with dill pickles (or relish) and a few fresh herbs. I like my tartar sauce more on the dip-side, not so thick that you have almost scoop it. But, that’s the great thing about making your own—you can easily customize this to your preferences.

Ingredients
- Mayonnaise
- Dill relish
- Parsley
- Dill
- Lemon juice
- Granulated white sugar
How to make Tartar Sauce
Finely chop the parsley and dill. In a small to medium sized mixing bowl stir together the mayo, relish, herbs, lemon juice and sugar.
You can store any leftover tartar sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator or at least a week but likely longer. The flavors of the sauce will deepen the longer you store it.
Notes and Substitutions
- You can swap regular mayo or Miracle Whip or another low-fat option if you prefer. If you want to make this vegan friendly use a vegan mayonnaise like Vegenaise.
- Instead of dill relish you can finely chop up dill pickles for this. If you do this will make the sauce thicker and more chunky in consistency.
- You could swap the dill relish or sweet relish. If you do I recommend omitting the sugar as it won’t be necessary to balance the flavors.
- If you don’t have fresh lemon juice you could use apple cider vinegar or white vinegar instead.
