Ingredients
- 3 onions
- 2 tbsp plain flour
- Salt
- Vegetable oil
- Deep frying pan
- Paper towels
- Food colouring
Method
Peel off onions skin. Cut top and bottom. Thinly slice the onions. Add pinch of slat and flour.
If you would like to have coloured fried onions. Divide sliced onions into 2 or 3 separate bowls.
Add pinch of food colouring to the onion and combine. Set aside.
Heat he oil in the pan. Test the oil temperature by dropping a slice of onion in the oil, if it sizzles then you know the oil is hot.
Add onions to the pan, keep stirring and fry onions on high heat until change into light brown. Duration of frying plain onions is shorter than coloured ones. Remove fried onions from the pan and place on paper towel to get rid of excess oil.Store it in a jar with a tight lid.
