PALE ALE ONION RINGS
INGREDIENTS
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1tbsp paprika
Salt & pepper
1 cup Sydney Brewery Pale Ale (chilled)
1 large onion sliced into rings
Milk
Corn flour
Oil for frying
METHOD
1. Mix dry ingredients & slowly whisk in Pale Ale until a smooth batter consistency.
2. Soak onion rings in milk for 1 hour (this takes some of the harsh onion flavour away & sweetens them slightly) …Pat dry
3. Dust onion rings with corn flour before dipping into Pale Ale Beer Batter – then place in hot oil (I’ve used vegetable oil over medium heat – test a small drop of beer batter if it starts to sizzle the oil is ready) to cook until crispy & golden.
