Ingredients

Ingredients for onion rings

  • 1 large white onion
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika powder
  • teaspoon white pepper
  • 1 cup beer
  • oil, for frying

Ingredients for sriracha mayo

  • cup unsweetened soy milk 1 fl. oz.
  • ¼ teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • teaspoon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon Himalayan black salt kala namak
  • ½ teaspoon lime juice
  • cup canola oil
  • ¼ teaspoon sriracha

Instructions

Instructions for onion rings

  • Peel the onion, cut it into ½-inch (1–2 cm) slices, and separate the rings.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, paprika powder, and white pepper. Add in the beer (or sparkling water) and whisk until a smooth batter is formed. You can adjust the consistency by adding more flour if it’s too runny or more beer or sparkling water if it’s too thick.
  • Heat the frying oil in a large pot to 350°F/175 °C. You won’t need much oil, but the onion rings should swim in it.
  • Dip the onion rings into the batter and immediately add them to the oil. Work in batches to prevent overcrowding in the pot.
  • Let the onion rings cook for 3 to 4 minutes until golden and crispy.
  • Transfer the onion rings onto paper towels to remove excess oil. Sprinkle them with more salt and enjoy with the sriracha mayo.

Instructions for sriracha mayo

  • Blend the following ingredients using an immersion blender: unsweetened soy milk, apple cider vinegar, mustard, maple syrup, Himalayan black salt, and lime juice. Blend for 1 minute then slowly start drizzling in the canola oil while the immersion blender is running. Blend for about 3 minutes until the mayo is thick and creamy. If it’s too liquidy, add a bit more oil and blend further.
  • Add in the sriracha and blend again. You can add more salt, mustard, sriracha, or lime juice to taste. Store mayo in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Notes

If you don’t want to use beer in this batter, you can use sparkling water instead.
