stack of onion rings

Lunch

Classic crispy onion rings stacked high—deep-fried to golden perfection and perfect as a snack or side with dipping sauce.

1 quart safflower oil for frying 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 2 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
4 large spanish onions, sliced into 1/4 inch thick rings

Heat safflower oil in a large, heavy skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Mix together flour and baking powder in a small bowl. In another bowl, whisk together eggs and heavy cream. Place seasoned bread crumbs on a medium, flat dish. Dust Spanish onion rings with flour mixture. Dip one at a time into egg mixture. Coat thoroughly with bread crumbs.
Fry coated rings in the hot oil, a few at a time, until crisp and golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
