1
Prepare the Onions
Peel the onions and slice them into approximately 1/4 inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set aside.
2
Make the Batter
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until you achieve a smooth batter.
3
Heat the Oil
In a deep pan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
4
Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
5
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
6
Drain and Serve
Remove the onion rings from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
