Method
Preparing the Onions
- 1
Slice the Onions
Peel the large onions and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rings. Carefully separate the rings from each other and set them aside.
Making the Batter
- 2
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
- 3
Add Water
Gradually add the water to the dry ingredients, whisking until you achieve a smooth batter. It should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.
Frying the Onion Rings
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 5
Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring that it is fully coated. Allow excess batter to drip off.
- 6
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
- 7
Drain and Serve
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried onion rings from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
