Sweet-and-Hot Onion Rings

Serves/Makes: 2




Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/8 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 tablespoon ground red pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup club soda
vegetable oil, for frying
1 large sweet yellow onions, cut into 3/8-inch-thick slices and separated into rings

Directions:
In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, ground red pepper, and salt. Whisk the club soda into the flour mixture. 

In a large saucepan, heat 2 inches of oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. 

Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl. Fry a few rings at a time for 5 to 6 minutes, or until golden. Drain on a paper towel-lined platter and serve.
