Plain Onion Rings

This recipe is based on my mother-in-law's recipe. And this is delicious!! It is fun, and the kids love it. Even my baby couldn't stop eating!! Great as a side meal to a braai or for finger food. And it is very cheap to make, too!

Ingredients

3 onions
2 cups flour
2t baking powder
1t salt
pinch white pepper
2 eggs
1cup milk
1cup water
oil

Method

Cut the onion in rings. Place in a bowl and cover with water. 

 Cook in the microwave until soft, about 15 minutes. Drain the water off. Mix the dry ingredients 
together. 

Whisk the eggs, milk and water together. 

Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and mix well. 

I used my stick blender to remove all clumps. 

The dough has to be fluid, but sticky. Heat up some oil in a pot, it does not need to be very deep. Dip the onion rings into the dough to make sure it is covered with the dough. 

Place in the oil and let it fry until light brown on the one side, flip over and fry until light brown on the other side. Be careful not to burn yourself. Don't let the oil get too hot, otherwise the rings will burn very quickly. Rather take a little longer to fry in cooler oil for best results. Remove from oil and place on kitchen towel to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with Aromat for an extra zing!! 

And serve!!
