Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces large onions
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 piece egg
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 4 cups oil for frying
Instructions
Peel the onions and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set them aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, ground black pepper, and paprika.
In another bowl, whisk the egg and milk together until well combined.
Place the panko breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish for breading.
Heat the oil in a deep frying pot or large skillet to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature if available.
Coat each onion ring first in the flour mixture, ensuring it is evenly covered. Then dip it into the egg and milk mixture, allowing the excess to drip off.
Finally, coat the onion ring in the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs. Repeat this process until all onion rings are breaded.
Working in batches to avoid overcrowding, carefully place the onion rings into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried onion rings from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the onion rings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch, ketchup, or aioli.
