Microwave-Fried Onions (Piyaz Dag)
"Unlock the secret to perfectly crisp, golden-brown Persian onions using this game-changing microwave technique that cuts labor without sacrificing flavor."
Instructions
Select a wide, flat, microwave-safe dish to allow the onions to cook evenly without overlapping.
Place the sliced onions in the dish and drizzle with vegetable oil. Toss thoroughly until all slices are lightly and evenly coated.
Spread the onions into a single, even layer to promote uniform browning.
Microwave uncovered on full power (100%) for 20–30 minutes.
Stop the microwave every 6–8 minutes and stir the onions well, redistributing them to prevent hot spots and uneven cooking.
Continue microwaving until the onions are uniformly golden and lightly crisp. Cooking time may vary depending on onion thickness and microwave strength.
Remove from the microwave and allow the onions to cool slightly; they will crisp further as they rest.
