Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 large onion
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 3 cups vegetable oil for frying

Equipment

  • Deep pan or Dutch oven
  • Shallow bowls
  • Whisk
  • Wire rack
  • Paper towels

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Slice the large onion into 1/4-inch thick rings and separate them.
Battering
  1. Prepare three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with whisked milk and egg, and one with bread crumbs seasoned with salt and pepper.
  2. Dip each onion ring first in flour, then in the milk-egg mixture, and finally coat thoroughly with bread crumbs.
Frying
  1. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Carefully place a few onion rings into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
  3. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  4. Remove the fried onion rings and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serving
  1. Serve the crispy onion rings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

For extra crispiness, you can double-coat the onion rings by repeating the milk-egg and bread crumb steps. Make sure the oil temperature is consistent for best results.
