4. Slice the stem end and the root end off onion, then, with the onion resting on a flat side, cut down through the onion, slicing it in half.
5. Slice each half 4 to 5 more times in a spoke fashion to create wedges of onion.

12. Repeat, frying 8 to 12 at a time for 1 to 2 minutes or until light brown.
13. Drain on a rack or paper towels.
14. Repeat until the onion is used up, stacking the newer batches on top of the old ones to keep them warm.
