Fried Onions

From the kitchen of Carly

Crispy onion threads that shatter between your teeth. Deep golden, slightly sweet, and utterly addictive on their own or scattered over soups, salads, and grain bowls. Patient frying transforms thin slices into caramelized, crunchy magic worth making ahead.

  • 11 cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a wok or frying pan over medium heat until hot enough to fry. Add one piece of onion to test the oil (it should begin to sizzle right away). Sauté onions for 15, 20 minutes, until golden brown. Using a slotted spoon, transfer onions to a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Spread onions out to drain and cool.

  2. Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
