1
Slice the Onions
Peel the onions and slice them into 1/4 inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set them aside in a bowl.

2
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
3
Add Water
Gradually add cold water to the dry mixture, whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.

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).
5
Coat Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off before frying.
6
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place coated onion rings into the hot oil in batches. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Turn them occasionally for even cooking.
7
Drain and Serve
Once fried, remove the onion rings from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
