Onion Rings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

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

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add the beer and ice water, mixing until smooth. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Fry the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered rings into the hot oil in small batches, frying for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the beer-battered onion rings hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
