Miller & Carter "Fake-away" Onion Loaf #mycookbook

Last week was our youngest daughter's birthday and we had planned on going to Miller & Carter. As we are in lock-down I boldly said I'd recreate her Steak dinner, I mean how hard could it be? She told me she always had their onion loaf but it wasn't like a bread loaf...now I've never been to Miller & Carter so I had no idea about their Onion Loaf so had to do some research and devise my own recipe. Fortunately my daughter was very impressed stating it was almost identical! Phew! I will list the other component part recipes to the whole plate separately otherwise this will be a very long post! Happy cooking...

Ingredient

Food ration :

6 mini loaves

large onions, skins and first layer removed, sliced into thin rings and separated

egg

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Heat the oven to 180 degrees C.

* Step 2

Place the separated onion rings into a large bowl. Generously sprinkle with salt. Stir and sprinkle over more salt. Set aside for 30 minutes to wilt and soften.

* Step 3

Rinse the onions under cold water to remove the salt and drain. Tip onto a clean tea-towel and pat dry.

* Step 4

Tip back into the bowl and sprinkle with Paprika, stir to coat.

* Step 5

Beat the egg and mix into the flour, along with the milk to make a thick batter.

* Step 6

Heat Rapeseed oil to a depth of 2 cm in a large, deep pan to approx. 190 degrees C. Test the oil temperature with one piece of onion, it should rise and brown after 1 minute.

* Step 7

Take a large tablespoon of the onion batter and carefully drop into the pan of hot oil. Depending on the width of the pan you should be able to cook about 2 or 3 at a time. Cook for a few minutes until browned on the underside and once a golden brown colour flip over to cook the other side. Drain on kitchen paper.

* Step 8

These can then be eaten as they are or, to to make them into mini loaves, use a mini-loaf-pan tray, packing one fried onion “cake” into each depression ensuring it is pressed into the corners to form a loaf and then bake for 10 to 15 mins. You could also make round ones using a bun-tray in the same way.
