Print Options
Description
This beer batter recipe is delicious and easy! Great for onion rings, fish, or any vegetable you like fried (mushrooms, zucchini, etc.).
Ingredients
- 2 cups Flour
- 1 whole Egg, Beaten
- 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
- 2 teaspoons Cayenne Pepper
- ½ teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Beer
- 1 cup Oil, For Frying
- 3 whole Large Vidalia Or Yellow Onions
Preparation
Combine flour, egg, garlic powder, cayenne, and salt. Gradually add beer, stirring, until a thick batter forms. Slice onions about 1/2 inch thick.
In a heavy frying pan, heat oil (adjust amount, depending on the size of your pan, so that you have a couple of inches of oil) over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, dip onions in batter and fry, turning once to brown evenly on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
For a nice presentation, you can always sprinkle some more cayenne on top, or garnish with chopped parsley or parmesan! Enjoy!

Hi Lilputtin
The batter needs to be thick–kind of sludgy consistency to really stick to those onion rings. This recipe does make a sludgy batter, I encourage you to try it 1 more time with the ratios above 
They turn out so delicious!

How do you get the batter to stick to the sliced onion? I would dip the onion in the batter and lift it out with nearly nothing on it! Also, can you describe the consistency of the batter more? 1 cup of beer made a very heavy, quite dry batter for me. I added more beer to make it stickier but I’m afraid of adding too much.

I have yet to master onion rings, but these look so easy I feel I might be able to do it! Sounds tasty and simple, just the way I like it!
