List of Ingredients




2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 cup buttermilk

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp salt
2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
vegetable oil for frying


Recipe



Separate onions into strips or rings. Mix with buttermilk in a large bowl. Cover with plastic and refrigerate 1 hour. Can be prepared 1 day ahead if kept refrigerated.

Stir flour, salt, paprika and cayenne in another large bowl.

Drain onions and discard buttermilk. Add onions to flour mixture and toss to coat.

Pour oil into a heavy saucepan to a depth of 3 inches. Heat oil to 350 degrees F.

Working in small batches, shake excess flour off of onions and cook in hot oil until golden brown and crispy, about 2 minutes per batch. Using slotted spoon, transfer onions to paper towels to drain.

Transfer onions to platter. Season with additional salt to taste and serve immediately.
