Parsley fried onion rings

2 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¾ cup Plus 2 tb beer (not dark)
1 cup All-purpose flour
¾ cup Finely chopped fresh parsley
¾ teaspoon Salt plus additional for sprinkling rings
1 large Onion
Vegetable oil for deep-fry
Salsa Verde for dipping (optional)

Directions

In a bowl, whisk beer into flour until batter is smooth and whisk in parsley. Let batter stand 30 minutes and stir in ¾ ts salt.

Cut onion crosswise into ½-inch-thick slices and separate slices into rings.

In a large, deep skillet, heat 1 inch oil to 380 deg F. Working in batches of 4 or 5 onion rings, drag rings through batter to coat completely, letting excess drip off, and fry, turning, until golden, about 1 to 2 minutes. With tongs, transfer rings as fried to paper towels to drain and season with additional salt.

Serve onion rings with Salsa Verde.
