Onion Ring Tempura Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

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

  2. 2

    Make the Tempura Batter

    In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Gradually add cold water and mix until the batter is smooth. Add ice cubes to keep the batter cold.

  3. 3

    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).

  4. 4

    Coat the Onion Rings

    Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring they are well-coated.

  5. 5

    Fry the Onion Rings

    Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the onion rings from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
