1. I have use red onion here as I love the zing. White onion is even sweeter and perfect for this recipe.
2. Adding just a bit of salt and oil caramelizes and crisps up the onion well. Make sure to add the salt just before you put the onion in for air frying or it will release water and get mushy.
3. Preheating the air fryer helps in quickly crisping up the onions.
4. I have used one large onion of 230 gm. or 8 oz. here. The onion was peeled cut into half and then sliced finely.
5. I have used only 1 tsp. of peanut oil in this recipe. Avocado oil or coconut oil works well too.
6. You can season your onions with any seasoning of choice but it would be better to toss them later with seasoning after air frying. As the seasoning may burn.
7. These onions lose their crunch once refrigerated. It’s best to consume them fresh.
