Summer is here and if your family is like mine, hot dogs and hamburgers are on our weekend menu. Time to make a favorite to go with those special treats. The best Beer Battered Onion Rings you will ever eat, and so so easy to make.
The secret is in the recipe. You use 1 cup of flour and 1 cup of cornstarch plus 2 teaspoons baking powder.
Mix in small amounts of beer until you have the batter the consistency of pancake batter. Thick, but not too thick.
Stir until smooth , no lumps. Not too thin.
Cut the onion slices about 1/2 inch thick and separate them into rings. Place a few at a time in the batter, turning with tongs to coat them well.
Place in skillet with enough hot oil to float the rings. Keep the oil hot, but not so hot they burn. As they brown turn to cook both sides. This takes just a minute.
Place on paper towel to drain. Season with salt and pepper to taste. These are so light, crispy and non-greasy yummy. Your family will love them.
Give these a try, your family will give you rave reviews.
These look yummy! Thank you for sharing the recipe.
Oh YUM! Thanks, Marty. I’ve never made them before but sure love to get them when I’m in the mood at some of our favorite pubs.
Thank you for sharing! Would have never thought to use cornstarch. Sounds yummy!
