Kids in the Kitchen: Mini Onion Straws {#Recipe}

Ingredients

  • Shallots or whatever onion you like best
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • Oil
  • 1/2 cup Flour
  • Salt Pepper and any other seasonings you'd like

Instructions

  1. Slice the shallots, place them in a bowl with 1 cup of buttermilk and let them sit for at least an hour.
  2. Put 1/2 cup of flour, salt, pepper (and any other seasonings) in another bowl.
  3. Scoop the shallots out of the buttermilk with a fork and dredge in the flour mixture.
  4. In a pan, heat a decent amount of oil on medium/medium high.
  5. When the oil starts to sizzle, pull the shallots out of the flour mixture with a fork. Gently shake off the excess and toss them in the oil.
  6. Carefully move the shallots around in the oil so they don't stick to each other.
  7. Pull the shallots out when they are golden brown. (This won't take long!)
  8. Place them on a paper towel to drain the excess oil
  9. ENJOY!
