Crispy Fried Onion Rings image

A guilty pleasure. I usually only make half the recipe now because of a smaller household. My Grannie loved these! Please note that the one hour chilling and soaking time is not included in the prep time.

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large spanish onions, or vidalia (1 3/4 pounds)

3/4 c beer

  • 2. Combine the flour and the next 4 ingredients; stir well. Add the beer and egg, stirring with a wire whisk until smooth.
  • 3. Pour the oil to a depth of 3 inches into a Dutch oven; heat to 375°. Dip the onion rings into the batter; fry, a few at a time, for 3 minutes or until golden. Do not crowd them or they will not turn out as crisp! Drain on paper towels.
