For the Onion Rings

Method

Prepare the Onion Rings

  1. 1

    Slice the Onions

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

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Gradually add the cold water, whisking until you have a smooth batter.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pan or fryer, 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, ensuring it is fully coated.

  5. 5

    Fry the Onion Rings

    Carefully drop the coated onion rings into the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Prepare the Dip

  1. 6

    Mix the Dip

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve the golden fried onion rings hot with the dip on the side.
