I love shopping for cookware but not for food that I can do at home.. For me if it can be made at home, I would not prefer to buy it.. Most of the times, I see people buying instant stuff, breads, jams, I feel so uneasy like.. One such thing is this fried onions. It is used in a lot of Biryani and gravy preparations.. So Fried onions, as the name says it is frying onions in hot oil and you get it, but yes as simple as it, you could also make it inedible.. Issues that could come are soggy onions, Onions that are charred etc.… Follow simple rules and you get it right.. I got this one from here and I have it done it few times now.. This is for F – Miscellaneous
Ingredients
Onions – 1
Corn Starch – 1 tea spoon
Oil – to fry
Onions – 1
Corn Starch – 1 tea spoon
Oil – to fry
Method
Thinly cut the onion in to strips. Separate the strips, so you get individual crescents
Heat oil and when it is moderately hot, mix the corn starch with onions and deep fry them until Golden. Do not fry until the desired color is reached (which is Golden Brown) as the onions will continue to color even after it is removed from the oil
Strain the excess oil on a paper towel and now the crispy and delicious fried onions are ready
We enjoyed it a lot in Quoboli Biryani (recipe to follow soon) .The flavor was awesome.
