These crunchy chilli onion rings offer a sophisticated twist on a classic pub snack, replacing standard breadcrumbs with finely ground corn tortillas for a superior texture. The addition of dark beer to the batter provides a deep, malty base that complements the warmth of the chilli powder, resulting in a savoury side dish with a satisfying heat. By using whole ingredients and avoiding sweet glazes, this recipe fits perfectly into a low-sugar lifestyle without compromising on bold, spicy flavour.
Ideal as a weekend treat or a side dish for a homemade dinner, these rings are best served fresh and piping hot. The double-dipping technique ensures a thick, robust crust that stays crisp even after frying. Pair them with a cooling soured cream dip or enjoy them alongside a grilled steak for a comforting, restaurant-quality meal at home.

Ingredients for Crunchy Chilli Onion Rings
375g plain flour
2 tablespoons chilli powder
4 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 350g bottle dark beer (preferably Mexican)
12 6-inch corn tortillas, coarsely torn
2 large onions, peeled
Vegetable oil (for deep-frying)
How to make Crunchy Chilli Onion Rings
Mix flour, chilli powder, and salt in medium bowl. Pour beer into small bowl. Finely grind tortillas in processor; transfer to deep bowl.
Line large baking sheet with foil. Cut onions crosswise into 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick rounds. Separate rounds into rings. Dip 1 onion ring into flour mixture, then beer, flour again and beer again, then add to bowl with ground tortillas and toss to coat. Using wooden skewer, transfer coated ring to sheet of foil. Repeat with remaining onion rings.
Pour oil into heavy large skillet to depth of 1 inch. Rest top of deep-fry thermometer against edge of skillet, submerging bulb end in oil. Heat oil to 188°C to 193°C. Fry onion rings, 4 at a time until golden brown, maintaining temperature, about 3 minutes per batch. Using slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain.
