Onion rings are a popular fried snack or appetizer, typically made by slicing onions into rings, dipping them in a seasoned batter or breadcrumbs, and deep-frying until golden and crispy. Believed to originate in the United States, they are a staple in American comfort food and often served alongside burgers and fries. The batter usually contains flour, eggs, and milk, though variations may include spices and herbs for added flavor. While onion rings offer some nutritional benefits from the onions, which are rich in antioxidants and vitamins like vitamin C, their deep-fried preparation makes them high in calories, unhealthy fats, and sodium. Baking or air-frying can be healthier alternatives to traditional frying. Onion rings are loved for their crunch and savory taste, but moderation is key to enjoying them as part of a balanced diet.
