Onion Rings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

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

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add the beer, mixing until the batter is smooth and has no lumps.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Batter the Onions

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Allow excess batter to drip off.

  5. 5

    Fry the Onion Rings

    Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot with ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce.
