For the Beer-Battered Onion Rings

Method

Instructions

  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, black pepper, and garlic powder. Gradually whisk in the beer until the batter is smooth and well combined.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Dip and Fry

    Dip each onion ring into the beer batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the onion rings from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
