Fried Onion Rings
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Onions
Peel the onions and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set aside.
- 2
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the beer until you have a smooth batter.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 4
Coat the Onion Rings
Dip the onion rings into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off.
- 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 3-4 minutes per side.

Drain and Serve
Remove the fried onion rings with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with smoked Chile catsup on the side.
