Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 large onions sliced into 0.5 cm rings
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.5 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 4 cup vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk.
  • Dip each onion ring first into the egg mixture, letting excess drip off, then dredge it in the flour mixture, ensuring it's well coated. Place coated rings on a plate.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat to 375°F (190°C).
  • Carefully fry the onion rings in batches, without overcrowding the pot, for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil.
  • Drain the fried onion rings on a wire rack set over a baking sheet or on paper towels.
  • Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

For an extra cheesy flavor, you can add a little shredded cheddar cheese to the bread crumb mixture.
