Delicious Onion Rings
From chefelaine 16 years agoIngredients
- 2 eggs beaten shopping list
- 1 pt milk shopping list
- 10 oz cake flour shopping list
- 2 tsp baking powder shopping list
- 1/2 tsp salt shopping list
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (NOT garlic salt!) shopping list
- 1 oz parsley flakes shopping list
- 1/2 tsp paprika (optional: for added color) shopping list
- 3 lb onions -- large shopping list
- as needed --- flour shopping list
How to make it
- Combine the eggs and milk in a bowl.
- Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, parsley flakes,and paprika together and add to the milk.
- Mix well.
- The batter should have the consistency of a thin pancake batter.
- Peel the onions and cut crosswise into 1/4 inch slices.
- Separate into rings (save unusable pieces for another purpose).
- Place the onions in cold water if they are not used immediately to maintain crispness.
- Drain and dry the onions thoroughly.
- Dredge with flour and shake off excess. (This step isn't always necessary, but it helps the batter adhere.)
- Dip a few pieces at a time in the batter and fry in deep fat (350°F) until golden brown. This only take a minute or two.
- Drain and serve immediately.

- Note:
- There are some variations listed below you might also enjoy!
- Beer Batter
- Substitute light beer for the milk.
- Omit baking powder because the carbonation of the beer acts as a leavener.

- Substitute buttermilk for the milk and use 1 tsp baking soda instead of the 2 tsp baking powder.
- Other Fried Vegetables:
- Try this with sweet potatoes, kohlrabi, cauliflower...... for a taste variety!

This looks great. I love all onion rings, but this looks like a step above the rest. I have heard that adding 1/2 t. of sugar makes them crispier and browner. Have you heard of this?
