The Aporia
Adam Liaw from the Sydney Morning Herald shares a recipe for parmesan onion rings where Parmesan cheese is mixed into the batter rather than sprinkled on top after cooking. The ingredients include 150ml ice-cold beer, an egg, ½ cup self-raising flour, ½ tsp smoked paprika, and ½ cup grated Parmesan. After whisking these together with vegetable oil heated to 165°C, the batter is used to coat sliced onions before frying until crisp and browned. The fried rings are then seasoned with salt before serving, offering a unique twist on traditional onion ring preparation.
