Ingredients
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Place oil in a deep skillet until it comes about 1-inch up the side of the pan. Heat oil to 360 degrees F.
Mix buttermilk, egg, and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Mix flour, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a bag. Pat onion slices dry and dip in the buttermilk mixture to coat.

These were very simple and very yummy : Tasted like onion strips I would get at a restaurant. I added some salt to the flour mixture as well as right when they came out of the oil.

I just finished cooking these onion strips today, and they were AWESOME!!!! The batter stayed on the onion strips. I must admit that I was skeptical about making them, due to the fact that I thought the batter would fall off once I started cooking them, but it didn't. I followed the recipe step by step and everyone loved them. Thanks Sunny, Good job.
