Ingredients

  • 1 large onion peeled and cut into 1/2 inch rings
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 3/4 cup beer
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  • In a large shallow bowl, sift together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, salt and black pepper. Add the beaten egg and incorporate. Gradually pour in the beer until you have the desired consistency. Stir until you have a smooth batter.
  • Heat oil in a large heavy bottomed pan. Make sure the oil is at least a couple of inches deep in the pan so the onion rings are immersed in the oil.
  • When the oil is hot, dip each onion in the batter and coat evenly. Place in the hot oil. Cook until golden and cooked through. This will take about 3 minutes per batch. Remove from pan and let drain on paper towels. Repeat for remaining onion rings.
  • Serve these hot and fresh for best results.
