Quick Crispy Onions

These crispy fried onions are the kind you’ll want to sprinkle on everything, from soups and salads to burgers and biryanis. Made with just four ingredients, they’re light, golden, and perfectly crunchy. The secret is in slicing the onions as thinly and evenly as possible and giving them a light toss in cornstarch before frying. And yes, your kitchen will smell amazing.

Malheureusement je n'arrive pas à les faire croustillants. Soit ils sont mous soit ils sont cramés

Hiii Marguerite, sorry to hear! Hmm a couple of things might be happening. If they're turning soggy, the oil may not be quite hot enough or the pan may be overcrowded.

If they're burning before becoming crispy, the oil is likely a bit too hot or the onion slices may be uneven in thickness. We've found that very thin, evenly sliced onions, frying in small batches, and letting them cool completely on paper towel gives the best crispy result 🙌 hope this helps for now 😊
