Onion rings seem to always have egg in them (aside from the ones from Sainsbury’s, which although nice are pricey and not real onion rings anyway…
Ingredients:
- Four onions
- One can beer (Guinness works well)
- Two mugs of flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- Vegetable oil (for frying in)
Instructions:
- Put about an inch thickness of oil in a big pan. Pop on high heat to warm through.
- Mix the flour, beer, sugar and salt in a pot to a consitency like pancake batter. Get the lumps out by blending if you’re lazy.
- Slice the onions into rings – slice the top and bottom off, peel, then cut into thirds. Pop each ring out seperately into the batter.
- Check the oil is hot enough – drop a tiny bit of bread into it, if it floats and fries the oil is good to go.
- Pop the battered onion rings into the oil a few at a time using a slotted spoon. Fry until golden brown on the underside (~2mins?), then flip and repeat.
- Remove using the slotted spoon, and drain on some kitchen roll.
