Instructions for Onion Rings
- 1
Prepare the onions
Peel the onions and slice them into 1/4 inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set aside.
- 2
Make the batter
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until smooth.
- 3
Coat the onions
Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing the excess to drip off. Then, coat each ring in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
- 4
Heat the oil
In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).
- 5
Fry the onion rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings in the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- 6
Drain and serve
Remove the fried onion rings from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
