Instructions
- 1.Place onion slices in medium bowl, keeping them separated. Pour milk over onion rings and let soak for about 20 minutes.
- 2.Spread 1/2 cup flour on a large plate and set aside.
- 3.Whisk remaining flour with bread crumbs and baking powder in medium-sized bowl. Add beer slowly, whisking as you pour. (Batter should be reasonably thick, and smooth when done.)
- 4.Heat oil to 350°F in a large pot or deep fryer.
- 5.Remove onion rings from the milk, and dredge in the flour. Once coated with flour, toss them in the batter. Make sure they are evenly coated.
- 6.Fry onion rings in batches, adding a few at a time. Fry until they begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Place cooked rings on a paper towel to absorb oil.
- 7.Sprinkle fried onion rings with Berbere Spice. Serve.
