Onion Rings in Beer And Vodka Batter Authentic Recipe | TasteAtlas image

This recipe, adapted from seriouseats.com, suggests freezing the onion rings shortly - this way, the inner membrane is easily removed, and the onion becomes tender

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large onions
2 qt peanut oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
1⁄2 cup cornstarch
1 tsp baking powder
1⁄4 tsp baking soda
1⁄2 tsp paprika
¾ cup light-flavored beer, ice-cold
1⁄4 cup vodka with 40% alcohol
kosher salt

Steps:

  • First, peel the onions, cut them into 1/2-inch slices, and separate them into rings. Put them into a freezer for 1 hour in a zipper-lock bag.
  • Then, thaw the onion rings with tepid running water. Drain thoroughly on paper towels or kitchen cloth. Remove the membrane from each ring and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and paprika. In another bowl, mix beer and vodka.
  • Now, slowly pour in the beer and vodka mixture into the flour mixture, stirring constantly. Adjust the amount of liquid, so the density of the batter resembles a thick paint.
  • Heat the oil to 375˚F in a large wok or a Dutch oven.
  • Meanwhile, dip the onion rings into the batter, let the excess batter drip off, and gently place the onions into the hot oil.
  • Fry the rings for 2 minutes, then turn them over and fry for 2 more minutes.
  • Drain the onion rings on paper towels, season with salt, and serve.
