Ingredients
Scale
Onion Rings
- 2 large onions, sliced into rings
- 200g all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 200g breadcrumbs
- Oil for frying
Spicy Mayo Topping
- 50 ml spicy mayo
- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Onion Rings: Begin by separating the sliced onions into individual rings carefully to maintain their shape.
- Coat the Onion Rings: In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Dip each onion ring first in the flour mixture, ensuring it is well coated, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat thoroughly with the breadcrumbs for a crisp texture.
- Heat the Oil: Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large, deep pan to 375°F (190°C). Proper oil temperature is crucial for achieving a crispy, golden exterior without absorbing excess oil.
- Fry the Onion Rings: Fry the onion rings in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan, for about 2 to 3 minutes each batch or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the rings and place them on paper towels to drain off excess oil.
- Serve: Arrange the fried onion rings on a serving plate. Drizzle the spicy mayo evenly over the rings and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for added flavor and a bright finish.
Notes
- To keep onion rings crispy, serve immediately after frying and drizzling with spicy mayo.
- Use fresh oil or filter the oil regularly when frying to avoid off-flavors.
- For extra spicy mayo, add a splash of hot sauce or cayenne pepper to your mayo before drizzling.
- Ensure oil temperature remains steady at 375°F to avoid soggy onion rings.
