Crisp Fried Onions Recipes

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, whisk the first 5 ingredients. Separate onion slices into rings. Dip rings into batter. In a deep-fat fryer, heat 1 in. of oil to 375°. In batches, fry onion rings until golden brown, 1 to 1-1/2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place flour in a bag, add onions and shake to coat evenly with flour.
• Pour oil into a deep 2-1/2 to 3-quart pan to a depth of 1-1/2 inches and heat to 300ºF. Add floured onions, about a fourth at a time, and cook, stirring often, until golden brown (about 5 minutes). Oil temperature will drop at first but will rise again as onions cook; regulate heat accordingly.
• With a slotted spoon, lift out onions and drain on paper towels (discard any scorched onion bits). Serve warm, piled in a napkin-lined basket or in a warmed bowl; sprinkle with salt.
• If made ahead, let cool, wrap airtight, and refrigerate for up to 3 days. To reheat, spread onions in a single layer on a shallow rimmed baking sheet. Heat in a 350ºF oven for 2 to 3 minutes.

Steps:

• 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.;
