Ingredients

2 Eggs beaten

1 pt Milk

10 oz Cake flour

2 tsp Baking powder

1/2 tsp Salt

1/2 tsp garlic powder (NOT garlic salt!)

1 oz parsley flakes

1/2 tsp Paprika (optional: for added color)

3 lb Onions -- large

as needed --- Flour

Directions

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.

Buttermilk Batter

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!

ENJOY! :+D

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?
