Onion Fritters Baked Food

ONION FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix together all of the ingredients besides the oil.
• Place a cast iron or non-stick pan over medium heat until hot. Add the oil and swirl to coat the pan (a non-stick pan needs less oil). Scoop out 2- to 3-tablespoon mounds of the onion mixture into the pan, flattening the mounds slightly with a spoon and spacing them about one inch apart.
• Cook the fritters for 2 to 3 minutes, flip them once, and cook them for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until they're golden brown and cooked through. (*See recipe note below for baking instructions).
• Serve warm with yogurt or sour cream or my Beet Aioli (recipe in the notes section).

VIDALIA ONION FRITTERS

Steps:

• 1. Place 1 3/4 cups flour, the baking powder, and salt in a large bowl and whisk to mix.
• 2. Place 2 cups of the milk, the eggs, vinegar, and hot sauce in another bowl and whisk until blended, then pour into the flour mixture and whisk until just blended; do not overmix. Stir in the sliced onions and let the batter rest for 30 minutes. It should be slightly thicker than heavy cream. If it isn't, sprinkle in a little more flour. If it's too thick, add a little more milk. The batter should look somewhat free-form, not doughy.
• 3. Preheat the oven to its lowest setting.
• 4. Pour vegetable oil to a depth of 4 inches into a large, heavy saucepan and heat to 375°F on a deep-fry thermometer. Drop the onion fritter batter into the hot oil by the tablespoonful, a few at a time, and fry, turning once, until the fritters are golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes in all. The fritters will have an irregular, spiderlike look, with a few loose pieces of onion escaping here and there. Check a fritter by breaking it open to see if the center Is cooked; it it still seems unset, cook 1 minute more. Drain on paper towels. Place the fritters in the oven to keep warm while you finish frying them all. Serve on a doily-lined platter or in a lined woven basket accompanied by the dipping sauce in one or more bowls.

TUNA, SPRING ONION & SWEETCORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Mix the milk and eggs together in a jug with ½ tsp salt and ¼ tsp ground black pepper. Sift the flour into a bowl, make a well in the centre and pour in the egg mixture in a thin, steady stream, whisking well until combined. Stir in the sweetcorn, spring onions, lemon zest and tuna.
• Heat a drop of oil in a non-stick or cast iron frying pan over a medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the pan and cook until crisp and golden, about 2-3 mins, flip and repeat on the other side (you'll need to do this in batches). Keep warm in a low oven and repeat with the remaining batter.
• Serve the hot fritters with the lemon wedges for squeezing over, the soured cream and hot sauce, if using.

GREEN ONION FRITTERS

Steps:

• Fill a medium saute pan with 2-3 inches of vegetable oil and heat to medium-high heat.
• Arrange a paper towel lined plate on the counter to place the fritters on when they come out of the hot oil.
• In a bowl, make the batter by combining the all-in-one pancake mix with the water (the batter will be on the thick side).
• Add the chopped green onions and season with cayenne, salt & pepper.
• When the oil is ready for frying, drop by spoonfuls of the batter into the oil and fry on all sides until golden brown and puffy.
• This should take no more than 3-4 minutes.
