Homemade fried onion
Homemade fried onions seem like an extravagant luxury and difficult to make. They taste super delicious, require very few ingredients, and I can guarantee that your fried hotdog or steak sandwich will reach new heights with these onions.
Ingredients
- 2 pcs. Onion Use 3 if they are small
- 106 gram Wheat Flour
- Salt optional extra spices, such as pepper, cayenne pepper, and smoked paprika.
- Oil For the deep fryer/pot
Instructions
- Start by turning on your deep fryer to 170 degrees Celsius (338 degrees Fahrenheit). It typically takes 20-25 minutes to get the oil warm.
- Peel your two onions and cut them into rings. I typically do this by cutting off the top and continuing in the same way. Otherwise, cut them into slices or coarsely chop them.
- Distribute the flour in a small bag and place the onion rings/pieces inside.
- Shake the bag well so the flour is well distributed on the onions.
- When the oil is warm, pour the onions into the deep fryer and fry them until they are golden. It takes about 5 minutes.
- Take them out of the pot and place them on absorbing paper. Season them with a little salt and extra spices. They are now ready to be served.
Notes
Note that the temperature drops in the deep fryer when the onions are added. So be careful not to add too many at once. It is advisable to make them in two batches.
If you don't have a deep fryer, you can cook them in a pot with oil. If you don't have a thermometer, you can use the rule of thumb by placing a small wooden stick or onion ring in the oil before starting. If it sizzles around it, then it's ready to fry.
