Ingredients
- 2 sweet onions (Vidalia or Walla Walla)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup cold water
- 2 eggs lightly beaten
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Cut off the top of each onion and peel away the skin. Using a sharp knife, cut the onions into 1/4-inch slices (or thicker if you prefer). Separate the individual onion rings from each slice, discarding the centers. Set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, seasoned salt, and baking powder. Add in water and eggs and mix until the batter is smooth.
- Heat 2-inches of oil in a large pot to 375 degrees F over medium-high heat. You can use a long stem thermometer to monitor the oil’s temperature.
- Dip onion slices in the batter, and shake gently to remove any excess. Then carefully drop the onions into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pot.
- Cook for 2 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Use tongs or a spider strainer to remove cooked onion rings to a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining onions and batter.
- Serve onion rings immediately. I like them with fry sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
