Lacy French-Fried Habenero Onion Rings
1
C. All Purpose Flour
2 Tbls. Sweet Orange Habanero Seasoning
1 Tsp. Baking Powder
1/4 Tsp. Salt
1 Egg, Well Beaten
1 C. Milk
1 Tbsp. Cooking Or Salad Oil
4 Sweet Spanish Onions
Fat For Deep Frying Heated To 375 Degrees
Blend the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
Combine the egg, milk, and oil in a bowl and beat until thoroughly blended. Beat
in the dry ingredients until batter is smooth. Cover and set aside while preparing
onions.
Cut off root ends of onions; slip off the loose skins. Slice onions 1/4
inch thick and separate into rings. Using a long handled two-tined fork,
immerse a few onions rings at a time into the batter. Lift out and drain
over bowl a few seconds before dropping into heated fat. Turn only once as they
brown. Do not crown the rings.
When rings are golden brown on both sides. Lift out drain on absorbent
paper-lined baking sheet. Serve hot with salt or garlic salt.
About 6 servings.
