Ingredients

• 2 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
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 cup Cold sparkling water
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 3 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the onions and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set them aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Step 3

Gradually pour in the cold sparkling water while whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

Step 4

Place the panko breadcrumbs in a shallow dish.

Step 5

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the right temperature.

Step 6

Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let any excess batter drip off.

Step 7

Coat the battered onion ring in panko breadcrumbs, gently pressing to help the breadcrumbs adhere.

Step 8

Carefully place the onion rings into the hot oil. Fry 3-4 rings at a time for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 9

Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the onion rings from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 10

Repeat the process with the remaining onion rings.

Step 11

Serve the onion rings hot with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch, ketchup, or spicy mayo.
