Crispy onions is one condiment I have always loved in burgers. Every time I have them at restaurants I decide to try making them at home, but procrastination gets the better of me. Not this time. This recipe turned out just perfect and is definitely a keeper. We had a tough time trying not to finish it off the plate before storing it. It’s so easy to make and versatile. Elevates your dishes up a notch in terms of appearance and taste. All you have to do is just top it up, on your pasta, soups, burgers etc. and you are in for a crispy texture surprise bursting with flavors.
