Peel and cut onions in slices and separate into circles. Salt and pepper, dip into milk, then into the flour or bread crumbs. Fry in preheated fat until a golden brown. Shake onto a sheet of paper to absorb any fat.
Variation: Asparagus, cauliflower, green pepper, egg plant, or celery. These vegetables should be pre-cooked for a few minutes and thoroughly drained.
