MAKING CRISPY ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Whisk together flour, cornstarch, dry potato flakes, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Whisk in club soda to make a smooth batter.
• Place panko bread crumbs in a shallow bowl.
• Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place a few onion rings at a time into the bowl of batter and turn to coat all sides with batter.
• Remove onion rings from batter and place into pan of panko bread crumbs; turn to coat completely with crumbs.
• Cook a few rings at a time in the hot oil until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Transfer to a cooling rack set over paper towels to drain. Season with salt to taste and serve.

MOM'S ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Set a cooling rack over a baking sheet.
• Separate the onions into rings and put in a large bowl. Toss with 1/2 cup of the flour. Arrange the floured rings on the cooling rack; let stand for 15 minutes.
• Fill a large, wide pot with 2 inches of vegetable oil and heat to 365 degrees F over medium-high heat. In a large bowl, whisk the remaining 2 cups flour with the cornstarch, paprika, cayenne, lime zest and 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt. Add the milk, club soda and egg and whisk to combine.
• Working in 3 or 4 batches, add a small amount of the onions to the batter and then immediately place into the hot oil. Fry until crisp and golden, turning once, 2 to 3 minutes. Allow the oil to come back to temperature between batches.
• Season the onion rings with salt. Serve immediately with your condiment of choice, or transfer to a cooling rack and keep warm in the oven until ready to eat.

ABSOLUTE BEST LIVER AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Gently rinse liver slices under cold water, and place in a medium bowl. Pour in enough milk to cover. Let stand while preparing onions. (I like to soak up to an hour or two - whatever you have time for.) This step is SO important in taking the bitter taste of the liver out.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Separate onion rings, and saute them in butter until soft. Remove onions, and melt remaining butter in the skillet. Season the flour with salt and pepper, and put it in a shallow dish or on a plate. Drain milk from liver, and coat slices in the flour mixture.
• When the butter has melted, turn the heat up to medium-high, and place the coated liver slices in the pan. Cook until nice and brown on the bottom. Turn, and cook on the other side until browned. Add onions, and reduce heat to medium. Cook a bit longer to taste. Our family prefers the liver to just barely retain a pinkness on the inside when you cut to check. Enjoy!

BEST EVER ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Put the onions in a large bowl, pour over the buttermilk and cover with cling film. Leave to soak at room temperature for 30 mins to 1 hr.
• Put 100g of the plain flour on a large plate and stir in the cayenne with a little seasoning. Drain the onion rings, then coat in the seasoned flour.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with the oil and heat until it reaches 180C on a probe thermometer (or until a piece of bread crisps in 20-30 secs) or heat a deep fat fryer to 180C. Make the batter by combining the remaining plain flour with the cornflour and a pinch of salt. Make a well in the centre and pour in the lager. Stir to combine until smooth.
• Dip each onion ring in the batter and fry for 3-4 mins or until crisp. Drain on kitchen paper and sprinkle with the salt.

LUBY'S LIVER AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Melt butter over medium heat in a large skillet and add sliced onions. Cook until tender.
• Mix the flour and seasoned salt together on plate, large bowl, or ziplock bag.
• Dredge each piece of liver in flour mix being sure to cover all of the liver. Coat all of the slices of liver.
• Remove the onions from the skillet and keep warm.
• Add 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons coconut or canola oil to skillet and turn heat up to medium high. I prefer coconut oil.
• Add dredged liver to skillet and cook on each side for 2-3 minutes. Don't overcrowd the skillet. It will take 3-4 batches to cook the liver. Move to a plate and keep warm between batches.
• Once all the liver is cooked, reheat the onions then place over the livers.
• You can cover with a brown, cream, beef, or mushroom gravy if you prefer.

ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Use a fork to steady your onion. Slice the onion into rings about 1cm wide. Remove the skin and separate the rings.
• Heat the oil to 180C in a heavy-based pan - it should be no more than 1/ 3 full.
• Meanwhile put the flour and sparkling water in a bowl and season generously. Whisk together to form a batter.
• Coat a small batch of onion rings in batter. Carefully lower into the hot oil and deep-fry until crisp and golden, about 2 - 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a piece of kitchen towel to drain. Repeat with the remaining onion and batter.
