Ingredients

• 2 cups vegetable oil or as needed
• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper or to taste
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 large Spanish onion , thinly sliced into rings

Instructions

1. 1 Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. 2 Mix flour, cayenne pepper, and salt in a large bowl until combined; add onion slices and toss until well coated.
3. 3 Shake off any excess coating and lower onion slices, working in batches, carefully into hot oil. Fry until golden and tobacco-colored, about 3 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer onion slices onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain and crisp up.
