An aperitif in batter but without oil

Simple, right? The truth is that onion rings are a very useful appetizer that you can make cheaply. The most important thing is to get a really big and beautiful red onion to get some big rings.

As for the batter, you can use normal breadcrumbs or Japanese panko style with a higher thickness. You can also mix the breadcrumbs with some crushed cornflakes to add a cripspy touch to the recipe.

Similarly, you can give each ring in egg and breadcrumbs just one pass. We prefer to do it twice to give the ring more consistency when shaking it in the fryer basket..
