Onion Rings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

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

Batter Preparation

  1. 2

    Mix Batter Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Whisk until well blended.

  2. 3

    Add Water

    Gradually add the cold water to the dry ingredients, whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

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

  2. 5

    Coat the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated, and allow excess batter to drip off.

  3. 6

    Fry the Rings

    Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  4. 7

    Drain and Serve

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried onion rings from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
