unspeakablehorrorOne useful way my tastes changed last year was that my dislike for onions went away. This means that I started to buy onions, whereas I never did before. Right now I have a lot of onions so I've been cooking them up in different things. One of the very few ways I was willing to eat onions as a child was onion rings, because frying makes everything better. So I made gluten-free onion rings, which I greatly enjoyed.
Here's my recipe (amounts are estimates):
1 large chopped onion
4 tbsp soy milk powder* mixed with 3 cups water (can substitute other savory liquids such as broth if you prefer)
2 cups gluten free all purpose flour
1 cup of olive oil to fry in
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
Mix soy milk powder and water. Chop onion into circular pieces. Put onion in soy milk, soaking for a few minutes. Pour flour salt, and pepper in another bowl and mix thoroughly. Dredge the soaked onions in gluten free flour. Fry a few pieces at a time, preventing them from overlapping. My oil wasn't quite deep enough to fully submerge all my onion pieces, but I could submerge more than half. I turned any thick pieces to finish cooking them. Place the pieces on a plate covered with a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
Can be used as sides, toppings, or sandwich additions.
* my soy milk powder is just made of ground soybeans. I'd imagine it's best to make sure that whatever liquid you use isn't sweetened. If you use soymilk from a carton, it's probably best to make sure it doesn't contain any sugar/sweeteners or vanilla flavoring.
