Crispy Onion Ribbons in Golden Bites

Thinly sliced onions mixed with herbs, bound lightly and fried until the edges crisp — these kremmydokeftedes deliver sweet onion flavor and crunchy texture in every bite.

Ingredients

  • 8 onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 80 g breadcrumbs
  • 2 eggs
  • 30 g vinegar
  • 20 g water
  • 1 bunch parsley, finely chopped
  • A small amount of flour for coating
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Olive oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Cook the Onions:
    Place the water, onions, and garlic in a pan. Cook over medium heat until the onions soften and absorb all the liquid.
  2. Add Vinegar:
    Pour in the vinegar and let it evaporate completely.
  3. Sauté:
    Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the pan and sauté the mixture for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. Combine Ingredients:
    Transfer the onion mixture to a bowl. Add the eggs, breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined. Gradually add the breadcrumbs until the mixture is firm enough to shape into patties. Adjust as needed.
  5. Shape the Fritters:
    Form the mixture into small patties and coat them lightly in flour.
  6. Fry the Fritters:
    Heat olive oil in a frying pan. Fry the patties on both sides until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
