Add Sparkling Water

Frying

Heat the Oil
In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small amount of batter into it; if it sizzles and bubbles, it’s ready.

Coat the Onion Rings
Take the separated onion rings and dip each one into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

Drain and Serve
Once fried, remove the onion rings from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
