1
Slice the Onions
Peel the large onions and slice them into 1/2 inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set aside.

2
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well.
3
Add Sparkling Water
Gradually add the cold sparkling water to the dry mixture, whisking until you achieve a smooth batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.

4
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, 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 it is fully coated.
6
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
7
Drain Excess Oil
Remove the fried onion rings using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
