Equipment

  • Whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large onions
  • 150 grams whole wheat flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 200 grams breadcrumbs
  • 250 ml milk
  • Oil for frying
  • Ground black peppercorn
  • Parsley
  • Salt

Instructions
 

  • Cut the onions into thick slices and separate them carefully without breaking the rings.
  • Pour the flour and a teaspoon of salt into a bowl. Then, little by little, pass the onion slices through this bowl to mix them with the flour and then reserve them on a plate for later. If you find the onion flavor too strong, you can lower it by first dipping the onion slices in salted water for at least 10 minutes.
  • In a second bowl, beat the egg together with the milk and a pinch of black pepper until you get a homogeneous mixture.
  • Add this last mixture of milk and egg in the bowl along with the flour and beat with a hand mixer until everything is well mixed.
  • Put a normal skillet or a wok pan over medium heat with enough oil to cover the onion rings. Meanwhile, fill a bowl with breadcrumbs to prepare the fry.
  • When the oil is hot, dip the onion rings in the egg, milk, and flour mixture, then roll them over with the breadcrumbs. Next, fry them in the pan for a couple of minutes, until they are brown and crisp on both sides.
  • Repeat this last step for all the rest of the onion rings. Place the ones that are already brown on a plate with several layers of absorbent paper or kitchen paper, to remove excess oil.
