- Lay the onion rings on a lined baking sheet and spoon the jalapenos popper mix into them, smoothing it down with a spoon. Pop them in the freezer for around 2 to 3 hours until they feel solid to the touch.
Heat the oil until it reaches 170°C/340°F. - Take them out and cover them completely in flour, then egg (shaking off excess) then finally the seasoned breadcrumbs.
- Fry them in batches of three for around 3 – 4 minutes until crispy and cooked through.
