Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

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

Batter Preparation

  1. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined. Gradually add water, mixing until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

Frying

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 365°F (185°C).

  2. 4

    Coat the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.

  3. 5

    Fry the Onion Rings

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

  4. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, 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.
