Ingredients
- 1 vidalia onion
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- vegetable oil or other frying oil
horseradish ketchup
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1 tsp horseradish sauce
Instructions
- Pour at least 4 inches of oil into a medium sized pot. Heat it over medium heat until it reaches 350°F.
- Slice the very top off the onion and peel just the outer layer of skin, leaving the root end intact. Slice it on the 1/8 inch setting of a mandolin slicer. Gently separate the slices into individual rings.
- Whisk the flour and the salt together in a bowl. Working in batches, toss the onions into the flour and coat completely. Shake off excess and drop into the hot oil. If you are not using a thermometer, drop in a test onion...if the oil is at the correct temperature, the onion should fry to a golden crispiness in about two minutes. If it browns immediately, the oil is too hot. If it doesn't turn golden in two minutes, it needs to be hotter. Transfer the fried onions to a paper towel to drain while you cook the rest.
- Serve right away, with horseradish ketchup on the side.
- To make the ketchup, stir the two ingredients together in a small bowl.
