Roasted onion, however is delicious or you might be able to use a crumb or cornmeal coating that would work if you cared to experiment. Nice dream, scratchcook3, but once in a while the real thing is absolutely worth the extra fat calories and kitchen mess. With the sweet Vidalias in the supermarket, right now is that perfect time–looks like next weekend might be my hubbies lucky day.
My observation has to do with the cornstarch batter. I’ve used it in the past for tempura, but it never browns for me as the gorgeous rings in your photo. Is it the hotter oil temp (I usually fry onion rings at 350), or does the ale have more sugar than the lager I typically use in my batter made with wheat flour?

Would there be a way to bake these bad boys instead of frying them in oil? Inquiring minds want to know……..
