Though they taste great on their own, these fritters like company. For a real Midwestern flare, pair them with a strong stew, savor as an appetizer with a dollop of sour cream cream, or go with a crisp green salad or gently simmered baked beans. Remember also a cool drink of lemonade or iced tea to finish the experience.

Orientations:
In a large basin mix flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and paprika.
Beat the egg gently in a separate dish then stir in the milk.
Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture until you have a soft batter.
Fold in the thinly sliced onions so that they are uniformly covered.
In a skillet set 365Β°F, heat approximately half an inch of oil.
Spoon batter into oil, shape as desired, and cook until golden brownβabout two to three minutes on each side.
