Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s make crispy and delicious onion rings today! This recipe is designed for ease and fantastic flavor.
Step 2
Start by preparing the onions. Peel the onions and slice them into rings about 0.8 to 1 cm thick. To make the rings, keep the core intact. Soak the sliced onion rings in cold water for about 10 minutes to remove their sharp flavor and enhance crispness. After draining them thoroughly, place the onion rings in a plastic bag with 1 cup of all-purpose flour. Shake the bag to coat each ring evenly with flour. This step helps the other coatings adhere better.
Step 3
Next, prepare the egg wash. Crack 3 eggs into a bowl and whisk them well. Dip the floured onion rings into the egg wash, ensuring they are fully coated. Then, transfer the egg-coated rings to a plate filled with 1 cup of breadcrumbs. Gently press the onion rings into the breadcrumbs to create a thick, even coating. Repeating this three-step coating process (flour, egg, breadcrumbs) will result in a beautifully golden and crunchy exterior.
Step 4
Arrange the coated onion rings in a single layer in your air fryer basket, making sure they don’t overlap. Lightly spray the onion rings with vegetable oil. This helps them achieve a beautiful golden-brown color and extra crispiness.
Step 5
Now it’s time to cook! Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Place the onion rings in the basket and air fry for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, carefully flip the onion rings and air fry for another 3 minutes. Once done, you’ll have perfectly crispy and delicious onion rings ready to enjoy! Serve them warm with your favorite dipping sauce like ketchup.
