do u know of any?
what it means by 'battered'?Are you frying onions that are battered?
Are you frying plain onions using oil?
Are you frying plain onions using water?
Have you considered using a crock pot or slow cooker instead for caramelized onions?
The question is too vague to know.
Battered means, the onion slice or round is dipped in batter, (flour/water/egg), then dipped in bread crumbs. Onions that are battered and breaded are often found in the frozen food department at our grocery stores. Those are just baked in a pan in the oven to cook and get crisp.what it means by 'battered'?
just diced onions in oil
i dont want a crockpot
just in the pan
thank you!Battered means, the onion slice or round is dipped in batter, (flour/water/egg), then dipped in bread crumbs. Onions that are battered and breaded are often found in the frozen food department at our grocery stores. Those are just baked in a pan in the oven to cook and get crisp.
Just diced onions with a light coating of oil (or without) can be put on/in a pan and roasted in the oven.
If you use a lot of oil, then in a pan on the stove where you can keep an eye on it. You wouldn't put a pan of oil into the oven. Frying onions.
Or with a little oil (or without and use water to loosen them) in a pan on the stove, you can saute them or caramelize them.

I'm sorry but my french training as a chef makes me by default give you my take on this basic misunderstanding and I think it's important for posterity to maintain these definitions.And just to clarify, you can’t sauté anything in water because sauté literally means to cook quickly using fat. You can cook food in water, however.
