Batter Ingredients

Onion Preparation

Method

Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Add Cold Water

    Gradually add cold water to the dry mixture, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Set aside.

Onion Preparation

  1. 3

    Slice Onions

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

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a deep frying pan or pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 5

    Coat Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Let excess batter drip off.

  3. 6

    Fry Onion Rings

    Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  4. 7

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried onion rings using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
