Ingredients

Servings
  • 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
  • basil fresh, handful, leaves
  • lemon juice squeeze
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. Pour the buttermilk into a large bowl and add the onions. Stir to coat.
  3. Pour oil to a depth of several inches into a pan. I used about a quart of oil Heat to 350F.
  4. In a large zip lock baggie, put the flour, breadcrumbs, and onion salt, and mix well.
  5. When the oil is hot, drop a few of the onion rings into the baggie and toss to coat well.
  6. 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.
  7. Drain on paper towels, and serve hot with dip.
  8. 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.
