Share:
Ingredients
- 1 large Walla Walla onion
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp onion salt
- vegetable oil for frying
Basil Buttermilk Dip
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- Handful of fresh basil leaves
- Squeeze of lemon juice
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Peel the onions and slice them thickly, about 1/2 inch. Gently separate the slices into rings, and don't discard the little center pieces.
- Pour the buttermilk into a large bowl and add the onions. Stir to coat.
- Pour oil to a depth of several inches into a pan. I used about a quart of oil Heat to 350F.
- In a large zip lock baggie, put the flour, breadcrumbs, and onion salt, and mix well.
- When the oil is hot, drop a few of the onion rings into the baggie and toss to coat well.
- Add the onion rings to the hot oil and fry until golden, about 2 minutes, flipping once or twice. Work in small batches so you don't crowd the pan.
- Drain on paper towels, and serve hot with dip.
- To make the dip, put the buttermilk in a small food processor or blender, and add the basil leaves and lemon juice. Process just until the basil is well incorporated. Add the seasonings to taste.
Notes
- If you want to serve more, make a separate batch of the coating, as it will get a bit lumpy and soggy after a while. You won't need to double the buttermilk, however.
