Extras

  1. 1

    Preheat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C) for frying.

  2. 2

    Slice the onions into 1/4-inch rings and separate the rings. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  3. 3

    In a large shallow dish, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder until evenly combined.

  4. 4

    In a separate bowl, whisk milk, egg, and hot sauce (if using) until smooth.

  5. 5

    Place breadcrumbs or panko in a third shallow dish.

  6. 6

    Dredge each onion ring in the flour mixture, coating completely. Shake off excess.

  7. 7

    Dip the floured ring into the milk-egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off.

  8. 8

    Roll the ring in breadcrumbs until fully coated; place on a wire rack.

  9. 9

    Repeat for all rings. Fry in batches: gently place rings into hot oil and fry 2–3 minutes per batch until golden brown and crisp.

  10. 10

    Remove rings with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels, and season with a little extra salt. Serve hot with dipping sauce.
