Crispy Onions

Type: Vegetables
Courses: Side dish
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 cup 62g / 2.2ozAll-purpose flour
2 tablespoons 30mlHot Hungarian paprika
4   Vidalia onions - sliced paper thin
  On an electric slicer or vegetable slicer
  Salt - to taste
  Oil - for deep-fryer

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the deep fat fryer, a stovetop fryer or high sided pot with the recommended amount of oil to 360 degrees.

Combine the flour and paprika evenly in a flour sifter and sift into a large bowl. Add the thinly-sliced onions to the flour and toss and shake well to coat the onions evenly in seasoned flour. Put the onions into a strainer and shake off any excess flour so that what remains is the thinnest coat possible.

Cooking in small batches, put the coated onions in a fryer basket and carefully submerge in the hot oil. Shake the basket to insure even frying and remove from the fryer when the onions have cooked to a deep golden, but not dark brown, color. Continue in this manner until all the onions have been cooked. Season each batch with salt as it's removed from the fryer. Drain on paper toweling.

This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
