Rondele de ceapa / Onion rings

Cui nu ii plac onion rings??
Va trebuie:
- 1-2 cepe mari
- 100 gr faina
- un varf de sare si piper
- jumatate de pliculet de praf de copt
- un pic de boia dulce
- apa minerala , aproximativ 200ml
- ulei pentru prajit

Ceapa se taie rondele, destul de late, 1-2cm grosime, dupa care despartim fiecare felie in inele.

Amestecam faina cu sarea, piperul, paprika si praful de copt apoi adaugam apa minerala. Compozitia trebuie sa iasa destul de densa ca sa lipeasca de inele de ceapa.

Urmatorul pas e sa trecem inelele prin aceasta compozitie, le lasam pe o farfuri sa se scurga un pic de surplus, si le prajim in ulei. 

Tigaia in care prajim trebuie sa aibe bordurile inalte si punem cam cat 3 degete de ulei, avem grija sa punem inelele doar cand uleiul este incins. Sunt gata cand sunt aurii si crocante, aproximativ 3-4 minute maxim. Cand sunt gata ii scoate pe un prosop de hartie, ca sa absoarba uleiul de pe ele!!!

Noi le-am mancat cu cartofi la cuptor si pentru ca nu am avut timp sa fac un sos salsa, i-am mancat o parte cu sos dulce-acrisor, o parte cu banalul ketchup :). Alaturi am avut, normal, o salata de varza rosie!!

Sa aveti pofta!!!

Who does not like onion rings? 

You need:
- 1-2 large onions
- 100 g flour
- A pinch of salt and pepper
 - half a sachet of baking powder
- A little sweet paprika
 - Mineral water, about 200ml
 - Oil for frying

First slice the onions into rings, quite wide, 1-2cm thick, then split each slice into rings.

Mix flour with salt, pepper, paprika and baking powder, then add the mineral water. The composition must be dense enough , it has to stick on the onion rings.

The next step is to get rings in this composition, the leave them on a plate to drain the little surplus, and fry them in oil.

The pan fry must have high curbs and put about three fingers of much oil , take care to put rings only when oil is hot.

They are ready when they are golden and crispy, this would take about 3-4 minutes maximum. When the onions are fried put them on a paper towel, to soak up oil of them!

We have eaten them with baked potatoes and I didn't had time to make a salsa sauce, so we eat the half of the onion rings with sweet and sour sauce and half with some ketchup :). Near of them we had, of course, a salad of red cabbage!

Yummmmyyy!!!
