thermometer to monitor the temperature of the oil.
List of Ingredients
Chili-Fried Onion Rings from David
1 cup buttermilk
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornstarch
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons table salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 cups peanut oil or vegetable oil
2 large yellow onions , sliced into 1/4-inch rounds and separated into rings Recipe
Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 250 degrees.
Line rimmed baking sheet with paper towels and set aside.
Place buttermilk in medium bowl. Whisk flour, cornstarch, spices,
sugar, salt, and pepper together in another bowl.
Heat oil in large Dutch oven over medium-high heat to 400 degrees.
Meanwhile, dip one-third of onion rings in buttermilk and shake off
excess liquid. Dredge rings in flour mixture, shake off excess, and
place on large plate. When oil reaches proper temperature, scatter
battered onions in single layer in oil and cook, stirring gently,
until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes (oil temperature should not dip
below 375 degrees). Using tongs, transfer onions to prepared baking
sheet. Place baking sheet in oven.
Repeat battering and frying process with remaining two batches of
onions, making sure oil temperature returns to 400 degrees before
adding each batch. Serve.
