Method
Preparation
Slice the Onions
Peel the large onions and cut them into 1/4 inch thick rings. Separate the rings and set them aside.
Batter Preparation
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Add Water
Gradually stir in the cold water until the batter is smooth and well combined. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.
Frying
Heat the Oil
In a deep pan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
Drain and Serve
Remove the onion rings from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
