Onion Rings

Horseradish Aïoli

Method

Preparing the Onion Rings

  1. 1

    Slice the Onions

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until the batter is smooth.

  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 and Fry the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing excess batter to drip off. Carefully place the coated rings into the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Making the Horseradish Aïoli

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, and minced garlic clove until well combined.

  2. 6

    Season

    Add salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as desired.
