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

2
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
3
Add Water
Gradually add the cold sparkling water to the dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined. The batter should be slightly thick but pourable.

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). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
5
Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it's coated evenly. Let excess batter drip off.
6
Fry the Rings
Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
7
Drain and Serve
Using a slotted spoon, remove the onion rings from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
