Onion Rings
Homemade Breaded Onion Rings: great recipe to make breaded onion rings, guaranteed to wow!
Last night, Friday night, Homemade Breaded Onion Rings seemed like the perfect treat to kick off the weekend. These onion rings were amazing. They’re the perfect balance of crunchy seasoned goodness on the outside, and sweet tender onion on the inside.
I heard it said once that if you only ate french fries when you made them yourself, from scratch, it would probably be about right. Since they’re a lot of effort, it’s good that they’re a sometimes, not all the time treat. The same could be said of these amazing onion rings.
Not an everyday kind of food, a little fiddly to make, but so, so worth it. These homemade onion rings are definitely worth the trouble. After the first crunchy bite, I’m sure you’ll agree with me.
