Ingredients

  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup flour
  • 8 spring onions
  • Salt

Method

  • In a large, deep pot, pour in 2 inches of oil and heat to 350 degrees.
  • Put the buttermilk and flour in separate shallow bowls.
  • Trim the tops of the onions so they fit comfortably in the pan.
  • Remove the outer layer and trim the bottom of each onion, then halve them lengthwise (or wedge them if they are thick).
  • Dip half the onions in buttermilk, then dredge in flour and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden brown and tender.
  • Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate and season with salt.
  • Repeat with remaining onions.
