      Title: Fried Onion Rings or Zucchini
 Categories: Vegetables, American
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
      2 c  Self-rising flour
    2/3 c  Yellow cornmeal
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Pepper
  1 3/4 c  Milk
      1    Egg, beaten
      6 lg Onions, 1/4" rings or
      6    Zucchini, 1/2" slices
           Vegetable oil
 
  Combine first 4 ingred in a large bowl; beat in milk and egg. Let
  stand 5 min. Add onion or zucchini slices to batter in batches and
  toss with hands until vegetables are well coated. When you are ready
  to fry them, pick up vegetables, allowing excess batter to slide back
  into bowl. Place slices immediately in hot oil (375 degrees), and
  deep-fry until browned, turning once. Drain in a colander, and
  sprinkle with additional salt, if desired.
  
  Note:  Don't drain on paper towels; the fried food will get soggy.
  Also, try not to stack them tightly. Air needs to circulate around
  fried food so it will remain crisp.

      Title: Onion Ring Loaf (Ala Tony Romas)
 Categories: Vegetables, Appetizers
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
           -----larry luttropp fvkc70a-
           -----l.a. times food section
      4    To 6 white onions
      1 c  Milk
      3    Eggs; beaten
           Salt
      2 c  Pancake mix; about
           Oil
           Parsley
 
  (Note from Larry: I have 2 other .. very similar .. recipes. Both have
  almost identical ingredients. The difference lies in the directions
  and Rose's comments. I felt it was necessary to add the reference to
  Tony Roma's in the title for this reason. 4/14/95) Slice onions
  crosswise and separate into rings. Combine milk, eggs and salt to
  taste in mixing bowl. Soak onion rings in mixture 30 minutes. Place
  pancake mix in shallow bowl. Heat oil for frying in skillet to 375
  degrees. Remove onion rings from milk mixture, dip in pancake mix and
  place in hot oil. Fry rings until golden brown. Drain fried onion
  rings on paper towels. Pack fried onion rings solidly, but loosely,
  without pressing, into 8x4-inch loaf pan. Bake at 400 degrees 10 to
  15 minutes. Turn onto serving plate. Garnish with parsley. Each
  serving contains about: 377 calories; 1,069 mg sodium, 54 mg
  cholesterol; 9 grams fat; 64 grams carbohydrates; 10 grams protein;
  1.11 grams fiber. 
  Pack the onions loosely (not firmly) in the
  loaf pan so they do not become soggy.
