For a simple side, try oven baking breaded onion rings rather than frying to dramatically cut the fat content
Ingredients
- 50g plain flour
- 1 large onion, cut into 1cm slices, rings separated
- 2 egg whites
- olive oil, for greasing
- 2 tsp Cajun seasoning
- 100g breadcrumb
Method
-
Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the flour in a large sealable plastic bag. Season, then tip in the onion and shake well. Whisk the egg whites until foamy, add the onions and stir to coat.
-
Lightly oil a baking sheet. Add the seasoning and breadcrumbs to the bag; then, working in batches, add the eggy onion rings and coat in the crumbs. Arrange onion rings, in a single layer, on the baking sheet and cook for 25-30 mins, turning halfway through, until the onion is tender and the crumbs are golden.
