Categories     Onions

Time 50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large onions, cut into 1/4-inch rings (preferably Vidalia or Spanish)
vegetable oil, for frying
1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups ice water
ketchup
ranch dressing

Steps:

  • In a large bowl of cold water, soak the onions for 10 to 15 minutes. Let drain on paper towels.
  • Meanwhile, in a large, deep pot or skillet, heat 2 inches of oil over medium-high heat until it registers 360F on a deep-fry thermometer.
  • Fill a large bowl halfway with ice. In a separate, medium bowl, whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Add the 1 1/4 cups ice water and stir, just until a batter forms. (The batter will be thin, with small lumps and bubbles.) Place the batter bowl inside the bowl of ice to keep cold.
  • Using tongs, coat the onion rings with the batter, letting the excess drip off. Working in batches, drop the rings into the oil and fry until light golden, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Using the tongs, transfer the rings to paper towels to drain; return the oil to 360F between batches.
  • Serve with the ketchup and ranch dressing.

Tips:

  • Use cold beer or sparkling water to make the tempura batter. This will help the batter to be light and crispy.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the batter tough.
  • Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying the onion rings. The oil should be at least 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the onion rings. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the onion rings will not cook evenly.
  • Drain the onion rings on paper towels before serving. This will help to remove excess oil.

Conclusion:

Tempura battered onion rings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or gatherings. With the right ingredients and techniques, you can make tempura battered onion rings that are light, crispy, and flavorful.
