348 - Homemade Onion Rings
(by Shirley McNevich)
1 large onion
frying oil
1 cup sifted flour
2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 egg
2/3 cup milk
1 TBSP salad oil
Peel onion and slice about 1/4" thick, then separate into rings. Place rings in a bowl with cold water and let stand for 30 minutes. Drain the rings and spread out on paper towels to dry. Sift flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl and set aside. Beat the egg yolk slightly, and then stir in milk and salad oil with the egg yolk. Add the egg yolk mixture to the flour mixture and stir until smooth. Beat egg white in a bowl until stiff peaks form, and then fold the egg white into the batter. Heat 1" of frying oil in saucepan to 375 degrees. Dip the onion rings in batter and let excess batter drip off. Drop several rings at a time into hot oil and fry until golden. Drain on paper towels.
