Onions are added to salads, soups, marinades, meat and fish to add flavor and aroma.
When preparing dishes that require frying onions, you may be faced with the question of how long to fry the onions so that they turn golden brown.
How to fry onions correctly
The time allotted for frying onions is not limited by strict boundaries and will depend on the thickness of the slices, the temperature of the pan and the amount of onions.
However, to get a beautiful golden color, the onion should be fried for 10-15 minutes over medium heat.
Be sure to stir the onion while frying to prevent it from burning or becoming bitter.
Regular stirring will help the onions heat evenly and get a distinct golden hue.
Why fry onions for 30 minutes
If you are preparing dishes that require the addition of caramelized onions, then the time for frying the onions should reach 20-30 minutes.
Fry the onions over low heat and stir regularly to give them their original golden colour and sweet taste.
However, be careful not to overcook the onions, otherwise they will become tough and unpleasantly bitter.
The time for frying onions may vary and will depend on your preferences.
