medium-large onion (about 10 to 13 ounces)
½
cup (125 ml) plus 2 tablespoons (30 ml) white rice flour
½
cup (125 ml) plus 2 tablespoons (30 ml) tapioca starch
(corn starch may be substituted)
½

Basket well with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Cut onion, crosswise, into 1/4-inch (0.6 cm) slices.
3. Stir the white rice flour, tapioca starch and salt together in a mixing
bowl. Stir in the beer or sparkling water with a whisk until smooth.

onto the prepared basket. Once all onions are dipped and placed,
put into the freezer for about 30 minutes for the batter to set up.
