OLD FASHIONED ONION RINGS (From allrecipes.com) 11-22-14
1 large onion, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 cup milk, or as needed
3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
seasoned salt to taste
1 quart oil for frying, or as needed
Heat the oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees. Separate
the onion slices into rings, and set aside. In a small bowl, stir together
the flour, baking powder and salt. Dip the onion slices into the flour
mixture until they are all coated; set aside. Whisk the egg and milk into
the flour mixture using a fork. Dip the floured rings into the batter to
coat, then place on a wire rack to drain until the batter stops dripping.
The wire rack may be placed over a sheet of aluminum foil for easier clean
up. Spread the bread crumbs out on a plate or shallow dish. Place rings
one at a time into the crumbs, and scoop the crumbs up over the ring to
coat. Give it a hard tap as you remove it from the crumbs. The coating
should cling very well. Repeat with remaining rings. Deep fry the rings
a few at a time for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove to paper
towels to drain. Season with seasoning salt, and serve.
TOO EASY GOOEY CARAMEL ROLLS (From food.com) 11-22-14
1 (22 count) packages rhodes frozen dinner rolls
1 (3 1/2 ounce) boxes butterscotch pudding mix (NOT instant)
1/2 cup butter or margarine
3/4-1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup pecan pieces (or more)
cooking spray
All this is done the night before: spray your bundt pan well and place evenly the frozen rolls in pan. Sprinkle the dry butterscotch pudding (instant will not work) evenly on top of rolls and sprinkle pecan pieces over pudding powder (add pecans 2nd, not last). Heat the butter to just melted, not hot in microwave and stir in brown sugar. If the butter is too hot, the brown sugar will separate and be hard to blend together pour brown sugar/butter syrup over rolls evenly. Place bundt pan in the cold oven overnight. When you arise the next morning, set the oven temp to 325°. Check the rolls FIRST before turning oven on to see if they rose over the top of the bundt pan. If they did, push the rolls hanging over back GENTLY. Don't remove rolls while the oven is heating, leave inches. Bake about 25 minutes until rolls seem firm on top and done in the middle, but don't over bake. Remove bundt pan from oven and let cool 5-10 minutes in pan (I usually wait only 5 minutes). Have ready a platter or pizza pan (holes covered) big enough to hold the rolls being careful not to burn yourself, place platter over the top of Bundt pan and quickly invert. Do this over the counter top so if some spills, it won't get on the floor.
