Onion Rings Ingredients

Method

Onion Rings Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    Peel and slice the large onions into 1/4 inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until smooth.

  3. 3

    Bread the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, then coat with bread crumbs. Set aside on a plate.

  4. 4

    Fry the Onion Rings

    In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry the breaded onion rings in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the onion rings hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
