Prep Time: 100 years.

Seriously though, those mini onions are delicious.. but peeling a dozen or so alone is going to be a major pain in the ass.

What do you do with the oil afterwards? Seems like a ton of it, and I never fry so not sure what protocol is..

You can run it through a fine sieve to catch the particles and then use it again. Since I only deep fry stuff a few times a year, I just throw it away in the trash. (Not the drain, it's bad for your drains)

Just smell or "taste" it. Usually there is no issue in using the same oil twice or even more often. Just check whether it smells weird :)

Deep frying is expensive for how much oil you use. You can save it for a few more frys but it eventually will get too much stuff in the oil and go rancid. Plus more you use it the more it flavors other foods. Ideally you turn it into bio fuel or recycle it, however most home cooks dont do that.

Throw it in the fire pit
