HOW TO MAKE AIR FRIED ONION RINGS?

To make these easy Air-fryer Onion Rings, DREDGING TECHNIQUE & BREADING is used.

Also one important tip to remember is to use one hand for wet ingredients and one hand for dry ingredients.

First prep the onions by peeling the skin and cutting the tips off. Wash the onions and wipe it dry.

Cut the onion to about 1 cm thick. You could use a single layer of the onion ring or use two layers if the onions layer is thin.
