Method
Preparation
- 1
Slice the Onions
Peel the onions and slice them into 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set them aside.
Batter Preparation
- 2
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Whisk together until well mixed.
- 3
Add Water
Gradually add the cold water to the dry ingredients while whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and has a thick consistency.
Frying
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small amount of batter into it; if it bubbles and rises to the surface, it's ready.
- 5
Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Allow any 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 about 2-3 minutes per side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
