In another bowl, mix together egg yolks, beer, salt, and butter. Add mixture to flour in mixing bowl and mix to make a thick batter.
Slice your onions into 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch thick slices. Add about 1-inch of oil to a heavy-bottomed pan or skillet. Heat on medium heat until a small amount of batter dropped in fries easily.
In another bowl, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Add the egg whites into the batter and mix gently.
Toss your onion rings in flour to coat, then dip in batter to coat. Gently drop into hot oil and fry, turning once, until golden brown. Drain on a plate covered with paper towels.
I’ve found they turn out best when first dipped in cold water, then flour, then baettr. The baettr I’ve used is: Beat one egg. Stir in 1 cup + 2 TB ICE COLD sparkling water. Stir in 1 cup flour. (It will be lumpy) Add a couple ice cubes to keep it cold. This is also tempura baettr. FYI: I find the easiest way to fry them is by using chopsticks!
