Deep-Fried Spring Onions image

This dish is inspired by something similar served at Chez Panisse in Berkeley. It works as a side, of course, but also as an hors d'oeuvre served with drinks. More spring recipes.

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Vegetable oil, for frying
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup flour
8 spring onions
Salt

Steps:

  • In a large, deep pot, pour in 2 inches of oil and heat to 350 degrees. Put the buttermilk and flour in separate shallow bowls.
  • Trim the tops of the onions so they fit comfortably in the pan. Remove the outer layer and trim the bottom of each onion, then halve them lengthwise (or wedge them if they are thick).
  • Dip half the onions in buttermilk, then dredge in flour and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden brown and tender. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate and season with salt. Repeat with remaining onions.

These spring onions were a waste of time and ingredients. I won't be making them again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the spring onions didn't turn out crispy. They were more like soggy.

The batter didn't stick to the spring onions very well. I ended up with a lot of naked onions.

These spring onions were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe, but I'm glad I tried it. The spring onions were crispy and flavorful, and the dipping sauce was perfect.

I followed the recipe exactly and the spring onions turned out great. They were golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender and juicy on the inside.

I'm not usually a fan of fried foods, but these spring onions were an exception. They were light and crispy, and the batter was perfectly seasoned.
