oh man, i hit the motherload today. i actually started imagining this as i was falling asleep last night and i am so so glad i remembered it upon waking this morning. i do not typically make fried onions before 11am but i had to make an exception indeed. (note: you will need a spiralizer or mandolin)
ingredients:
- 1 large onion peeled
- 1/4 cup potato flour
- 1/4 arrowroot flour
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground garlic sea salt
- avocado oil for frying
- additional plain himalayan salt
- spiralize your peeled onion (i use this one)
- cover the bottom of a skillet with avocado oil, just a thin layer and heat over medium
- on a plate mix the potato and arrowroot flour with the garlic salt
- take the spiralized onions and dredge them in the flour mixture
- once coated place them in heated skillet and fry until browned on all sides
- remove from skillet and place on towel lined plate to absorb excess oil
- sprinkle with additional himalayan salt if desired
- serve right away with ketchup, bbq sauce or with just a smile

I bought a spiralizer a couple of months ago, but I never used it to spiralize onions. I am glad I came across your post, otherwise, I wouldn’t have known that it can be used to spiralize onions. Thanks very much for this!

Sounds delicious and I know my husband would love this! If I don’t have potato flour (and I am AIP), can I use coconut flour instead? Or finely ground almond flour?
Thanks!

You could try almond flour! Coconut might work but I can’t really speak for either sub.
