directions

  • Place buttermilk in large bowl; add onion rings and toss to coat; let stand at room temperature 20 minutes and up to 1 hour, turning onions occasionally.
  • Pour enough oil in large saucepan to reach depth of 3 inches; heat to 350°F.
  • Mix all remaining ingredients in large bowl; remove 1 handful of onion rings from buttermilk; add to flour mixture and toss to coat; add onion rings to oil; cook until crisp and golden brown, about 2 minutes; using tongs, transfer to paper towels to drain; repeat with remaining rings in batches; mound in bowl and serve.
  • Note: You could use the lightly onion-scented buttermilk to make up a batch of really tasty corn bread!

  1. I was looking for an onion ring recipe without eggs and I found this one. I had a bit of trouble at first getting the batter to stick on the rings but I think my oil was not hot enough at first. I thought these were pretty good but I prefer a fluffier batter on my onion rings. I served this with French Fry Sauce recipe#67023 for a special treat!
     
  2. Ooooh, these were absolutely delicious! I used just a pinch of the cayenne, 1 tbls. would have blown me out of the house! Spicy, tasty, yummy! Thanks Evelyn!

I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages! I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure. So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call. What did I do wrong? Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths. I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time. That's all for now.
