Onion Patties

• servings: 6 servings
• active time: 15 minutes
• total time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

1/2 cup mayonnaise

3 tablespoons ketchup

1 tablespoon pickle relish

1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

canola oil

1 cup flour

2 tablespoons yellow cornmeal

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 cups sweet onion

1 cup whole buttermilk

Directions

Gather all ingredients.

Prepare the Dipping Sauce: Whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, relish, Worcestershire, garlic powder, and cayenne in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Prepare the Onion Patties: Pour oil to a depth of 1/2 inch in a large cast-iron skillet; heat over medium-high. While oil heats, whisk together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne in a bowl.

Add onion and buttermilk and stir until combined.

A drop of batter should sizzle as it hits the oil, indicating it’s ready. Working in batches, spoon a scant 1/4 cup of batter into the hot oil, and using a spoon, spread slightly into circles. Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes total. Remove from pan to a wire rack set over paper towels and immediately sprinkle with salt to taste.

Serve hot with Dipping Sauce. Recipe developed by Marianne Williams
