INGREDIENTS
1 packet (145g) Doritos Grilled BBQ Flavoured Corn Chips
2 cups vegetable oil, for frying
1 large onion
1 large egg
¼ cup buttermilk
½ cup cake flour
Serving suggestions:
Parsley, finely chopped
Dipping sauce, of choice
METHOD
1. Open a small hole in the top seam of the Doritos Grilled BBQ Flavoured Corn Chips packet. Using a rolling pin, lightly crush the Doritos into small pieces, and avoid crushing them too fine.
2. Add the vegetable oil to a medium-sized pot or pan and place over medium heat while preparing the onion rings. *Chef’s Tip: Place the back of a wooden spoon into the oil to test readiness. If small bubbles appear around it, the oil is ready.
3. On a clean cutting board, peel and slice the onion into 3cm thick rings. Separate the rings onto the board and set aside until needed.
4. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the eggs and buttermilk together until smooth. *Chef’s Tip: Make your own buttermilk by mixing ¼ tsp of lemon juice with ¼ cup of milk..
5. Working in batches, dip the separated onion rings into flour, followed by the egg mixture. Do this twice before placing the double coated onion rings into the crushed chips bag. Shake the bag briefly, remove the evenly coated onion rings from the bag and gently lower them into the heated oil. *Chef’s Tip: Place the coated onion rings into the freezer for 20-30 minutes before frying to ensure the coating doesn’t fall off when they are fried.
6. Fry the onion rings for 3-5 minutes, in batches so as to not overcrowd the pot. When golden brown and crispy, transfer to a plate lined with paper towel to drain. *Chef’s Tip: The onion rings can be baked in the oven or airfried, if preferred.
7. Serve the onion rings on a platter garnished with chopped parsley alongside your favourite dipping sauce, and ENJOY!
