Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Slice the Onions

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

Batter Preparation

  1. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Whisk until well mixed.

  2. 3

    Add Ice Water

    Gradually add the ice water to the dry ingredients, whisking until the batter is smooth and thick. Let it rest for about 10 minutes.

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.

  3. 6

    Fry the Onion Rings

    Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, flipping once.

  4. 7

    Drain Excess Oil

    Remove the onion rings from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve

    Serve the onion rings hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
