Spiced Onion rings on Tawa Or Oven
About:
I have been craving onion rings and tried this variant. These were AMAZING because they truly tasted like the real deal.
To enhance the taste, I added fresh Italian seasoning to give the rings a peppy, lively flavour and some cayenne pepper to give spicy kick. They are perfect with the dipping sauce.
Be sure to top with some fresh herbs too (If desired).
