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

2
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
3
Add Cold Water
Gradually add cold water to the dry mixture while whisking until a smooth batter is formed. Ensure there are no lumps.

4
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5
Dip and Fry the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing excess batter to drip off. Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
6
Fry Until Golden Brown
Fry the onion rings for about 3-4 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

7
Serve Hot
Serve the onion rings hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or ketchup.
