Yield: 4 Servings

Ingredients

• Cold Water to soak onion rings
• 1 extra large White Onion sliced 1 inch thick
• About 6 cups more or less as needed, Vegetable Oil, for frying
• 1 cup McCormick Golden Dipt Tempura Seafood Batter Mix
• 1/4 teaspoon Onion Powder
• 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground Black Pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup Water
• 1/4 cup Beer
• Salt to taste

Instructions

• Fill a large bowl with cold water. Add a few ice cubes to chill it down more.
• Peel onion. Slice onion into thick slices.
• Separate slices into individual rings. Place rings into cold water to soak while you make the batter and heat the oil.
• Pour oil into deep fryer, Dutch oven or large, heavy cooking pot.
• Heat oil to 375°F
• To a large, preferable shallow, bowl, add McCormick Golden Dipt Tempura Seafood Batter Mix, onion powder and black pepper. Stir to mix.
• Slowly stir in 1/2 cup water and beer. Mix well until smooth.
• Remove rings, a few at a time, from the cold water, allowing the water to drip off.
• Dip rings into prepared batter. Toss around to fully coat.
• Make sure the oil is up to temperature. Drop the rings, one at a time, into the hot oil. Drop as many as will fit comfortably in cooker without crowding.
• Fry for 3 - 5 minutes, turning as needed, until golden brown.
• Remove done rings to a paper towel-covered plate to drain.
• Repeat until all rings are cooked.
• Lightly salt and serve hot with a generous selection of Dipping Sauces (See Box below for Links to Some Good Ones!)
