👨‍🍳 Instructions

Whisk together flour, cornstarch, dry potato flakes, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl.

Place panko bread crumbs in a shallow bowl.

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place a few onion rings at a time into the bowl of batter and turn to coat all sides with batter.

Remove onion rings from batter and place into pan of panko bread crumbs; turn to coat completely with crumbs.

Cook a few rings at a time in the hot oil until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.

Transfer to a cooling rack set over paper towels to drain.

Season with salt to taste and serve.
