Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Large onions
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Ice-cold sparkling water
- 2 cups Breadcrumbs (panko preferred)
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Peel the onions, then slice them crosswise into 1/2-inch thick rings. Carefully separate the rings and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Crack the egg into the dry mixture and pour in the ice-cold sparkling water. Whisk until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
Place the breadcrumbs on a shallow plate or tray.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C). Ensure the oil is deep enough to fully submerge the onion rings.
Dip each onion ring into the batter, letting the excess drip off, then coat it evenly in the breadcrumbs.
Carefully lower the breaded onion rings into the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the onion rings and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
