Whataburger Onion Ring Recipe

Instructions

1 Start by slicing the sweet onions into thick rings. Aim for about half an inch
thick. Place them in a bowl, and toss them with the seasoned flour. This initial
dusting helps the batter stick.
2 In another bowl, whisk together the egg, whole milk, remaining flour, baking
powder, sea salt, smoked paprika, and fresh herbs. Make sure it’s well combined.
Your batter should be smooth and somewhat thick.
3 In a deep skillet or a frying pan, heat enough oil for frying at 350°F (175°C).
If you don’t have a thermometer, drop a small bit of batter in. If it sizzles
right away, you’re good to go.
4 Take each onion ring, dip it into the batter, ensuring it’s well coated, and
carefully place it in the hot oil. Fry a few rings at a time until they turn
golden brown. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes on each side.
5 Once they are cooked, remove the onion rings from the oil and place them on a
paper towel to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while they are still hot.
