Onions fried in lard are onions cooked using an animal fat. They mainly provide carbohydrate and fat, along with some fibre. Per 100g, they contain 11g of carbohydrate, 5.3g of fat, including 2.1g of saturated fat, and 3g of fibre. These values are calculated estimates rather than direct measurements of this preparation.
Fibre helps support normal bowel function. Frying adds fat, which increases the energy content compared with onions cooked without added fat. The saturated fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their intake, as lard contributes saturated fat to the dish. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
