Source: Gluten Free Mommy

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 or 3 big sweet onions (shallots are a good variation)
  • enough milk for soaking onions
  • 1 1/2 – 2 teaspoons salt
  • pepper (you can also add a little cayenne pepper if you wish)
  • gluten free flour
  • oil for frying

Directions

  1. Measure gluten free flours, salt, and pepper and put into a zip lock bag.

  2. Slice the onions and separate into rings.

  3. Heat oil in a large frying pan. Oil should be about an inch deep. When the oil is hot enough, a flick of water will make the oil sizzle.

  4. Soak the onions in milk for a few minutes.

  5. Don’t try to do all the onions at one. Just one batch at a time.

  6. Dredge the onions in the gluten free flour. Give them a good coating of flour.

  7. Place the onions in the frying pan with the heated oil.

  8. When the onions start to float to the top turn them over and cook until just golden brown

  9. When done, remove from oil to a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Store in an air tight container.
