Cut the onions into 3/8" slices. In a nonreactive dish,
soak the onions in the buttermilk for 30 to 60 minutes.
In a brown-paper sack, combine the flour, salt, and
chilli spice. Drain the onions and dredge them in the
seasoned flour.
Pour at least 4" of oil into a deep, heavy saucepan.
Heat the oil to 375 F/190 C. Fry the onions in batches,
about 2 to 3 minutes or until golden. Drain the onions
on paper towels, sprinkle with salt.
Serve immediately.
