Fried Vidalia® Sweet Onion Rings
Serves 4-6

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 large Vidalia® Sweet Onions
1-1/2 cups beer (active, flat, or room temp)
3 to 4 cups cooking oil

Combine flour and beer in a large bowl and blend thoroughly,
using a whisk. Cover the bowl and allow the batter to set a room temperature for no less than 3 hours. Twenty minutes before batter
is ready, preheat oven to 200 degrees. Place brown paper bags or
layers of power towels on cookie sheet. Carefully peal the skins from the onions so that
you do not cut into the outside onion layer. Cut onions into ¼ inch thick slices. Separate
into rings. Pour oil into deep fryer or large pan and heat to 375 degrees. Dip rings into batter,
fry to golden brown. Transfer to paper lined cookie sheet. To keep warm, place in oven until
all onions have been fried.
