Ingredients:
- 1 large sweet yellow onion
- Seasoned flour
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp milk
- Salt and ground black pepper
Method:
- Peel the onion, then cut away the root end but not too deep.
- Then cut the stem end about 1 cm, flat.
- Let the onion stand on this end, root end facing up.
- Cut from about 1/2cm from root end downward all the way.
- Continue to make more cuts till you get 4 quarters.
- Then make cuts in middle of each quarters.
- Continue till you get 16 sections.
- Dust the onion with seasoned flour.
- Make sure all the surfaces of the layers are lightly coated, then shake off excess flour.
- Beat the egg, milk, salt and black pepper together. Pour this mixture over the onion, coat well.
- Sprinkle seasoned flour. Again, make sure all the layers are coated evenly. Shake off excess flour once more.
- Set Ninja Foodi on Air Crisp (Air Frying function) 180C for 20 mins
- After 5 mins, put the onion in the preheated crisp basket. Spray or drizzle some oil on the onion.
- Check after five minutes of air crisp and if needed, spray more oil.
- Air crisp till golden brown
- Serve on its own or with a dip of choice like sour cream!
Note from Patsy:
You need to check on the onion regularly as it might get burned easily. For variations you can season flour with garlic powder, parmesan, paprika, curry powder.
