Source: Gluten Free Mommy
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
- 2 or 3 big sweet onions (shallots are a good variation)
- enough milk for soaking onions
- 1 1/2 – 2 teaspoons salt
- pepper (you can also add a little cayenne pepper if you wish)
- gluten free flour
- oil for frying
Directions
-
Measure gluten free flours, salt, and pepper and put into a zip lock bag.
-
Slice the onions and separate into rings.
-
Heat oil in a large frying pan. Oil should be about an inch deep. When the oil is hot enough, a flick of water will make the oil sizzle.
-
Soak the onions in milk for a few minutes.
-
Don’t try to do all the onions at one. Just one batch at a time.
-
Dredge the onions in the gluten free flour. Give them a good coating of flour.
-
Place the onions in the frying pan with the heated oil.
-
When the onions start to float to the top turn them over and cook until just golden brown
-
When done, remove from oil to a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Store in an air tight container.
