Fried onions are a staple ingredient in many Persian dishes. Before frying, they are blanched, which gives them a golden and crispy texture, and they can be stored in the freezer.

Directions

  1. Peel the onions (medium to small size) and finely chop them into thin strips. ≈ 8 min
  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil, then add the onions and salt and let them simmer for 5 minutes.
  3. Drain the onions and spread them out on a clean dishcloth to dry. Then, place a pan on the stove.
  4. Pour the enough oil paint so that the onions float. ≈ 3 min
  5. Once the oil paint is warm, add the onions and turmeric. Allow them to soften, without stirring with a spoon beforehand. ≈ 4 min
  6. To stir them, gently rotate the pan. When the onions float to the surface, mix them in a circular motion until they are golden brown, then quickly remove them from the oil.
  7. Onions burn very quickly: remove them from the oil immediately and place them on a metal rack to drain excess oil. Once cooled, pack them and store them in the freezer.
