This is pretty much the same recipe as my coconut onion rings. My husband was not in a “coconut” mood yesterday, so I just eliminated that. As for the hot sauce goes, use what you have or like! And add more or less “less oh oh oh I don’t know that word…lol lol lol” to suite your taste! Served these with BBQ-ed ribs and slaw....:-))))

  • - for the breading:
  • - 2 cups all purpose flour
  • - 2 tablespoons corn starch
  • - 1 cup cayenne pepper “ yes that amount is right lol “

How To Make triple threat onion rings

  • Step 1
    Slice the onions into rings.
  • Step 2
    Mix the hot sauce and buttermilk.
  • Step 3
    Pour over the onions and refrigerate for 1 hour. After 1 hour drain the onions.
  • Step 4
    Mix the egg whites, water and adobo in a bowl.
  • Step 5
    Sift the flour and corn starch together, and then mix the rest of the breading ingredients together in a deep bowl.
  • Step 6
    Get oil hot, very hot. And use only fresh oil, not any that has been used before. They’ll turn out a lot crisper.
  • Step 7
    Working in batches, dip the onion rings into the egg whites, then the breading.
  • Step 8
    Fry immediately, when they float to the top then you can turn them over.
  • Step 9
    Drain on paper towels and serve with dipping sauce.
  • Step 10
    And then you know the drill....just enjoy!
