French Fried Onions

A homemade alternative to the Durkee brand. I use these for casserole recipes when I can keep them from being eaten first.

Ingredients

  • 3large onions, sliced into thin rings
  • 2 cupsmilk
  • 2 cupsall-purpose flour (I use gluten-free)
  • oil (for frying)
  • salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Soak the onions in the milk for 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat the oil in a large skillet or deep fryer.

  3. 3

    Take a handful of onions and run them through the flour with a fork to coat.

  4. 4

    Fry in batches in the oil, stirring as needed to brown evenly.

  5. 5

    Drain on paper towels and season to taste.

  6. 6

    Store in an air-tight container.
