Onion Rings

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour for coating
  • 1 cup beer lager or ale
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Method
 

Prepare the Onion Rings

  2. Separate the onion rings and set them aside.
Make the Beer Batter
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.

Fry the Onion Rings
  1. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Dip each onion ring into the beer batter, allowing excess to drip off.
  3. Carefully place the battered onion rings into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

Serve
