Title: Tortilla-Crusted Onion Strings
Categories: Breads, Chilies, Vegetables, Dairy
Yield: 6 Servings

5 c Broken yellow tortilla chips
- (about 5 ounces)
1 ts Chilli spice mix
1/2 ts Ground cumin
1/4 ts Cayenne pepper
3 md White or yellow onions
1/4 c Cornstarch
2/3 c Buttermilk or sour milk
Oil for frying
Salt

In a food processor process chips, covered, until fine
crumbs form (you should have about 1-3/4 cups). Add chili
powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper. Pulse to combine.
Transfer mixture to a large bowl.

Cut onions in half through the root end and thinly slice
into 1/4" half-moons. Place onions in a large resealable
plastic bag. Add cornstarch. Seal bag; toss to coat.

Pour buttermilk into a medium bowl.

Set oven @ 200ºF/93ºC Line a baking sheet with paper
towels; set aside. In a Dutch oven heat 2 inches oil to
375ºF/190ºC.

Dip 1/2 cup of the onion pieces into buttermilk, letting
excess buttermilk drip off. Coat in tortilla chip crumbs,
shaking off extra crumbs. Using a slotted spoon, place
onions in hot oil. Fry onions for 1 to 2 minutes or until
crisp and golden. Using a slotted spoon or tongs,
transfer onions to prepared baking sheet. Season with
salt. Keep warm, uncovered, in the oven. Repeat with the
remaining onions. Serve warm.
