Onion Rings are so delicious, not surprising they’re such a popular appetizer and side dish when eating out. It’s so great to be able to enjoy Onion Rings at home. I thought I would make things different by spicing up my recipe a little bit. These Onion Rings have the perfect amount of spice, not to much, but just enough. My kids ate a whole bunch of them, which means this is a great recipe. The tangy dipping sauce goes really well with these Spicy Onion Rings.
Ingredients
Onion Rings
2 cups of all purpose flour
1 tablespoon of cornstarch
2 medium onions sliced abut 1/2″ thick
1 egg (beaten)
1 can (355 ml) of beer
1 tablespoon of cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon of garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon of paprika
Deep fryer with canola or vegetable oil
Sauce
2 tablespoon of mayonnaise
1 tablespoon of sour cream
1 tablespoon of seafood cocktail sauce
A pinch of paprika
A pinch of garlic salt
A pinch of freshly ground pepper
Directions
Onion Rings
Heat the oil of the deep fryer to 190 degrees
While the oil is heating, combine flour, cornstarch, egg, cayenne pepper, garlic salt, pepper, paprika and beer in a medium size bowl. Whisk until smooth.

Serve with the delicious dipping sauce.

Onion rings are a good side dish with any meat or casserole. I love having it during game nights. The dipping sauce recipe sounds good, I think it would be good with any other deep fried food, like shrimp tempura. yum!
