Onion Rings
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Onions
Peel the onions and slice them into 1/4 inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set aside.
Make the Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Gradually add the cold water, stirring until the batter is smooth and thick.
Heat the Oil
In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing the excess to drip off.
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings in the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally.
