Ingredients
- 1 piece onion large sliced into thick rings
- 8 Mozzarella cheese sticks
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 cup Panko bread crumbs
- 2 cups cooking oil
Dry ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt fine
Instructions
- Pair two slices of onion rings. One piece should be larger than the other and there should be a space in between the rings when the smaller piece is placed inside the larger one.
- Slice the mozzarella cheese in such a way that it fits the space in between the rings. Put the sliced cheese in between the two pieces of onions and secure by inserting a toothpick. Perform this step on all pairs of onion rings that you have.
- Heat oil in a deep cooking pot.
- Combine all dry ingredient mixture in a bowl. Mix well. Dredge all onion rings onto the dry ingredient mixture. Place over a wire rack. Set aside.
- Combine milk and egg. Mix well. Pour the mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix well until a better is formed.
- Dip the onion rings in the batter mixture. Put it back over the wire rack for the excess batter to drip.
- Coat with Panko breadcrumbs.
- Fry one side until it turns golden brown. Turn it over and do the same thing on the opposite side.
- Serve warm with marinara sauce. Share and enjoy!
