Add Water
Slowly add water to the dry ingredients while whisking until you achieve a smooth batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.

Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).

Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated.

Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per batch.

Drain and Serve
Using a slotted spoon, remove the onion rings and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with paprika if desired and serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
