Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour , or more if needed
2 tsp baking powder
coarse (kosher ) salt , to taste
2 to 2 1/2 cups milk
2 large eggs
1/2 tsp white wine vinegar
1/4 tsp tabasco sauce
2 large vidalia onions , sliced lengthwise (top to bottom)
canola or other vegetable oil, for deep-frying

Directions:

1. Place 1 3/4 cups flour, the baking powder, and salt in a large bowl and whisk to mix.
2. Place 2 cups of the milk, the eggs, vinegar, and hot sauce in another bowl and whisk until blended, then pour into the flour mixture and whisk until just blended; do not overmix. Stir in the sliced onions and let the batter rest for 30 minutes. It should be slightly thicker than heavy cream. If it isn't, sprinkle in a little more flour. If it's too thick, add a little more milk. The batter should look somewhat free-form, not doughy.
3. Preheat the oven to its lowest setting.
4. Pour vegetable oil to a depth of 4 inches into a large, heavy saucepan and heat to 375°F on a deep-fry thermometer. Drop the onion fritter batter into the hot oil by the tablespoonful, a few at a time, and fry, turning once, until the fritters are golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes in all. The fritters will have an irregular, spiderlike look, with a few loose pieces of onion escaping here and there. Check a fritter by breaking it open to see if the center Is cooked; it it still seems unset, cook 1 minute more. Drain on paper towels. Place the fritters in the oven to keep warm while you finish frying them all. Serve on a doily-lined platter with small bowls of dipping sauces, spicy to creamy.
