Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Slice the Onions

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

Batter Preparation

  1. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Whisk together until well mixed.

  2. 3

    Add Water

    Gradually add the cold water to the dry mixture, whisking until a smooth batter forms. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.

Coating the Onions

  1. 4

    Coat the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it’s fully coated. Then, roll it in breadcrumbs until evenly covered. Place the coated rings on a plate and repeat for all onion rings.

Frying

  1. 5

    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). You can check the temperature using a thermometer.

  2. 6

    Fry the Onion Rings

    Carefully drop a few coated onion rings into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels.

  3. 7

    Repeat

    Continue frying the remaining onion rings in batches, maintaining the oil temperature. Serve warm.
