Onion Rings Ingredients

Method

Onion Rings Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    Peel the onions and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg until well combined. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients until a smooth batter forms.

  3. 3

    Coat the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat with breadcrumbs. Place the coated rings on a baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Onion Rings

    Carefully add the battered and breaded onion rings to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the onion rings hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
