Crispy calamari or onion rings?
Anyway to duplicate the "fast food" onion rings at home? I tried batters or just dry flour coatings, etc., some recipes even call for eggs, but I always found that leads to soft or rubbery coatings. I have been expermenting and still far away from what I want. The "Burger King" onion ring is what I am trying to do.... any tips or recipies ?
Answers:
Have you tried a corn meal coating?
3 plates
1. Flour to dust the onion rings (this helps the egg stick better)
2. Egg wash - beat a few eggs in a bowl to dunk the sliced onions
3. Corn meal with seasoned salt - garlic powder... whatever you like.
First, lightly coat some dry onion rings with flour. Dip into the egg wash and finally coat with the corn meal mixture.
Deep fry 375F until golden brown.
If the onion isn't cooking enough, for the next batch, lower to 350F and fry longer.
