Method
Preparation
- 1
Slice the Onions
Peel the onions and slice them into thick rings, about 1/2 inch wide. Separate the rings from each other and set them aside.
Batter
- 2
Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well. Gradually whisk in the cold water until the batter is smooth and has a consistency similar to pancake batter.
Frying
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small amount of batter into it; if it sizzles and bubbles, it’s ready.
- 4
Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
- 5
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings in the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, turning them occasionally for even cooking.

Drain and Serve
Remove the fried onion rings with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve while hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
