Method
Preparation
- 1
Slice the Onions
Peel the large onions and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rings. Carefully separate the rings and set them aside.
- 2
Prepare the Batter
In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and ground black pepper. In another bowl, beat the egg and then add the cold sparkling water. Combine the wet and dry ingredients to create a smooth batter.
- 3
Prepare the Coating
In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well to ensure an even coating.
Cooking
- 4
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 by dropping a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle immediately.
- 5
Coat the Onion Rings
Take each onion ring, dip it into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it with the breadcrumb mixture. Press lightly to ensure the coating sticks.
- 6
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil, a few at a time, to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking.
