Description
A great topping to add extra taste and texture to your meals.
Ingredients
- 1 medium red onion
- 1 pasture-raised egg
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons cassava flour
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- Cut the onion in half and then slice each half as finely as possible, making sure the slices are not attached to each other.
- Beat the egg in one large bowl, add the extra virgin olive oil, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and freshly ground pepper and combine, then add the onions to the bowl and with your hands mix the onion and the egg so the onion slices get coated with the egg.
- Take the onion from the bowl leaving behind the remaining liquid and spread it on a large stainless steel baking sheet, so it overlaps as little as possible.
- Add one tablespoon of the flour to a sieve and sift it all over the onions. Mix them around the sheet with two forks, and repeat with the second tablespoon of flour. Mix again with the forks and spread the onions on the baking sheet.
- Bake for about 20 minutes, stir again with tongs or forks, and bake for 15 more minutes or until they are crispy. Take out and let them cool on the baking sheet.
- Serve warm or cold.
Notes
You can store leftovers in a glass container in the refrigerator, but they won’t stay super crispy. But you can pop them in the oven again, and they’ll get crispy.
