For the Onion Rings

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    Peel the onions and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Gradually add the cold sparkling water and mix until just combined. The batter should be slightly thick.

  3. 3

    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).

  4. 4

    Coat the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off.

  5. 5

    Fry the Onion Rings

    Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil, a few at a time to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the onion rings hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
