How To Make crispy fried onion rings
-
Step 1Peel onions. Cut into 1/2 inch slices and separate into rings. Place in a bowl and cover with cold water. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Drain on paper towels.
-
Step 2Combine the flour and the next 4 ingredients; stir well. Add the beer and egg, stirring with a wire whisk until smooth.
-
Step 3Pour the oil to a depth of 3 inches into a Dutch oven; heat to 375°. Dip the onion rings into the batter; fry, a few at a time, for 3 minutes or until golden. Do not crowd them or they will not turn out as crisp! Drain on paper towels.
