Creamy pasta with brocoli and onion rings

It is winter and sometimes you feel like eating something warm and crispy. This is when the idea of making some deep-fried onion rings popped in my mind. This is easier to cook than I thought. I love the crunchy texture and the soft cooked onion in the middle. This is to definitely try.

ONION RINGS RECIPE

Ingredients:
1 large onion, sliced about 1cm thick

For the batter-
1/2  cup all-purpose flour
1 egg
1tsp dried parsley
1tsp garlic powder
1tsp paprika
1/4 cup milk

1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (or panko)

Vegetable oil, for frying

Method:
1. Separate the onion rings from the sliced onions and dust with cornstarch. Make sure all the rings are well coated.
2. Prepare the batter by mixing all the batter ingredients. Whisk until there is no lumps.
3.As in a production line, place each onion rings in the wet batter, drain excess batter and then mix in with the breadcrumbs.
4. Heat oil, and make sure it is hot before frying the onions in batches for about 3 minutes or until golden and crispy.

 

These accompanied my bacon and mushroom pasta, and broccoli.

 

 

 

To finish off this indulgent dinner, we have, of course, some fruits - oranges, apples and kiwis.
