Veggie Burgers and Beer Battered Onion Rings

Mmmmm.... fried food.... Not something that's necessarily healthy all the time, but every once in a while... YUM! I've always been a little intimidated by the thought of deep frying, but after listening to the Vegan Cooking School podcast episode on onion rings I decided to give it a whirl. And they came out awesome - better than most of what I've had in restaurants. I did them in a smaller pot in small batches and I ate so many while I was still cooking more, I hardly had room for my veggie burger. One note - this recipe made way more than the two of us could eat, so if you try it invite some friends over. Or cut the recipe in half and use a small onion (of course then you'll have to find something to do with that other half of the beer...)

Hey I had the same meal. Well, with sweet potato fries (which were good) instead of your much-more-exciting onion rings. I applaud your deep frying effort.

Thanks! All that oil is a little scary to me, but it's good every once in a while.
