How to Make Guinness Battered Onion Rings

  1. In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon garlic powder.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, and 1 cup Guinness stout until smooth.
  3. Gradually whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Peel and slice 2 large yellow onions into 1/2-inch thick rings. Separate the rings.
  5. Gently dredge each onion ring in the batter, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  7. Carefully place a few battered onion rings in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Remove the onion rings with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  9. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce (e.g., mayonnaise, aioli, or sriracha mayo).
