Ingredients

How to make it

  • Crack 4 eggs into a measuring cup. Read the level and add that much milk. (4 eggs should be about 4 ounces. If so add 4 ounces of milk.)
  • Whisk the eggs and milk in a mixing bowl. Whisk in flour a little at a time. Stop when the consistency is like pancake batter that's a bit too thin. Dredge a ring through it. The batter is just right if a thick coat stays on the ring after a couple blobs dribble off.
  • Heat one to two inches of oil in a large dutch oven to 375 degrees.
  • Dip onion rings and green pepper rings in batter and put a few at a time into the oil. Maintain the oil temperature by not overloading with rings. If the oil cools the rings will come out oily.
  • Cook about two minutes, until golden brown. Remove the second they look brown enough.
  • Drain on paper towel. Shake on seasoned salt to taste.

    I love homemade onion rings it has become, especially with vidalia onions. Which I just got a 10 lb bag, so I guess onion rings will be made tomorrow. Thanks for the post

    Thanks for the comment on my Chuck's Chicken and Rice casserole. You and your wife sound like my kind of people. I actually live in a log cabin in the woods on 5 acres of land. This recipe sounds awesome. And since I live in Georgia, I will use Vidalia onions in the recipe!! Can't wait to try it. I'll try the chili powder in my mix and let you know how it is. Debbie

    The last time I made onion rings they got soft in about two minutes after removed from frier. Last night Elton Brown told me why. He said that when deep frying, as long as there is moisture coming out of the food (in the form if steam) the oil will not go in. If you continue to cook after the steam lets up, oil will soak in. That's why it's important to take the rings out the second they look golden brown.

    Shirleyoma has shown me that this recipe was just too vague. I have edited it for clarification.
    I have to confess it's been about a decade since we've prepared rings. I'll make a batch very soon so I can tweak the details. Sorry for not conducting a fresh test run before posting.
