Heat a pan with oil on medium heat or medium high to 350F.
-
2
I used a stove top deep dryer.

3
Mix your batter and seasonings together.

4
Keep in mind that the premade seasoning can taste saltier before frying.

5
Wear gloves and proceed to cut the stem end off and cut the pepper in half length wise.
-
6
Take the gloved thumb and run it down the side, removing the seeds.
-
7
Then cut each half again (length wise) getting 4 to 5 slivers from each half.
-
8
Do the same with the onion.
-
9
You want to cut it in half (end to end) and then follow the lines on the onion for your slivers.

10
I threw it all in the batter.
-
11
And at first used the basket with the dryer but they stuck to the bottom.
-
12
So I then just took a spotted spoon and just spooned them into the batter free form.
-
13
Then used a wired slotted spoon (specifically for frying and boiling) and took them out when they were golden brown.
-
14
No more than a couple of minutes)
-
15
As you can see from the picture, my batter didn't stay on real well.

16
So will try different things in the future and edit as I go.

I am even going to try baking.
