Tips for a good onion flower recipe in a airfryer
- It is important to be careful not to go all the way down when cutting the cboil so as not to break the flower
- Cover the outside and the inside of the onion both as with the chickpea flour mixture and with the oatmeal mixture
- To cover the onion with the mixtures you can use a brush which is easier or just a spoon
- You must be careful with the cooking time in the air fryer because it depends on the size of the onion so watch the last five minutes
Substitution of ingredients
- Sweet onion ➡️ Regular onion (the traditionally called old onion)
- Chickpea flour ➡️ Regular wheat flour or whole wheat flour (healthier)
- Wholemeal oatmeal ➡️ Regular oatmeal or almond flour (less enough)
- Spices ➡️ You can add or substitute the ones you like the mostI recommend you try the barbecue seasoning with a little garlic powder and herbs de Provence
