Crispy Fried Onion Rings Recipes

MAKING CRISPY ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Whisk together flour, cornstarch, dry potato flakes, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Whisk in club soda to make a smooth batter.
• Place panko bread crumbs in a shallow bowl.
• Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place a few onion rings at a time into the bowl of batter and turn to coat all sides with batter.
• Remove onion rings from batter and place into pan of panko bread crumbs; turn to coat completely with crumbs.
• Cook a few rings at a time in the hot oil until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Transfer to a cooling rack set over paper towels to drain. Season with salt to taste and serve.

OLD FASHIONED ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
• Separate the onion slices into rings, and set aside. In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt.
• Dip the onion slices into the flour mixture until they are all coated; set aside. Whisk the egg and milk into the flour mixture using a fork. Dip the floured rings into the batter to coat, then place on a wire rack to drain until the batter stops dripping. The wire rack may be placed over a sheet of aluminum foil for easier clean up. Spread the bread crumbs out on a plate or shallow dish. Place rings one at a time into the crumbs, and scoop the crumbs up over the ring to coat. Give it a hard tap as you remove it from the crumbs. The coating should cling very well. Repeat with remaining rings.
• Deep fry the rings a few at a time for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove to paper towels to drain. Season with seasoning salt, and serve.

CRISPY FRIED ONION RINGS

Steps:

• To keep the onion rings warm while frying subsequent batches, heat the oven to 200 F.
• Line a baking sheet with paper towels for draining the onion rings and place another baking pan nearby for keeping them warm in the oven.
• Peel the onions and slice them into rounds about 1/4-inch thick. Separate the rounds into rings.
• Pour a few inches of milk or buttermilk in a large, wide bowl. Add the onion rings and let them soak for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Heat about 1 quart of vegetable oil in a deep, heavy pan or deep fryer to 365 F.
• Meanwhile, in another bowl, combine the cornmeal, 2/3 cup of the flour, salt, pepper, melted shortening, egg, and 1 2/3 cups milk. Mix until the batter is smooth.
• Put about 1 cup of flour in another bowl.
• Remove some of the onion rings from the milk. Dredge them first in the plain flour and then dip them in the batter to coat.
• Fry the onion rings in batches in the vegetable oil for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Make sure the oil is at the correct temperature and don't crowd the onions.
• Transfer to the paper-towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Move the drained onion rings to the baking pan and place them in the preheated oven to keep warm for up to 30 minutes. You Might Also Like Battered and Deep Fried Onion Rings Balsamic Onion Jam

• When fat is ready, gently drop onion rings into pot or place in fryer basket and lower into fryer.
• When onions rings are golden, using a slotted spoon lift into a metal strainer to drain. If using a fryer, simply lift the basket and allow your onion rings to drain.
