Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Oil for frying
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Onion Rings
Slice the onions into thick rings and separate them.
Pair similar-sized rings to create space between them and fill that gap with mozzarella slices or shreds.
2. Freeze the Rings
Place the stuffed rings on a tray and freeze for 30–60 minutes. This step helps the cheese stay intact while frying.

3. Bread the Rings
Set up a dredging station with flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs + Parmesan.
Dip each ring in flour, then egg, then breadcrumb mixture. Make sure it’s fully coated.
4. Fry to Perfection
Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) in a deep pan.
Fry rings in batches for 2–3 minutes or until golden and crispy.
Drain on paper towels.
