Beer Battered Onion Rings
Chef Thom
Onion Rings are a big favorite around here.
I always make the Beer Battered Onion Rings.
These take a little time to prepare but are so worth the effort.
Enjoy!
4 eggs, beaten
1 cup milk
1 cup beer
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
vegetable oil or shortening for frying
4 extra large onions, sliced into rings � inch thick
Kosher salt to taste
Mix together the eggs, milk, and beer in a bowl.
In each of two other bowls mix together 2 cups flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
Heat oil in a large heavy pot to 350 to 400 degrees.
Dip the onion rings into the egg mixture and then the first bowl of flour.
Redip in the egg mixture and then the second bowl of flour.
Add onion rings to the hot oil a few at a time.
Cook the onion rings for about 3 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
Salt to taste and serve immediately.
