Method
Preparation of Onions

Batter Preparation
- 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir until well blended.

Add Water
Gradually add the cold water to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.
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).

Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
- 6
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings in the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-4 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

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 favorite dipping sauce.
