ONION RING RANCHOCADO

Ingredients:

 

FOR SPREAD

  • 1 large avocado, pitted, peeled, and cut into chunks
  • ¼ cup vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped shallot
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh dill
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

 

FOR ONION RINGS

  • 1 cup vegan beer, chilled
  • 2 teaspoons sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more if needed
  • Canola oil, for cooking 12 large (¾ inch wide) sweet onion rings, separated

 

FOR SANDWICHES

  • 2 crusty ciabatta rolls, cut in half and toasted
  • 2 cups shredded lettuce
  • 8 slices tomato Sriracha, for serving
  • Instructions

    To make the spread:

    • In a blender, combine the avocado, mayonnaise, vinegar, and shallot.
    • Blend until smooth. Stir in the herbs.
    • Season to taste with salt and pepper.

    To make the onIon rings :

    • Preheat the oven to 300°F.
    • In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the beer, sriracha, liquid smoke, mustard, salt, and pepper. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. The mixture should coat the onion ring well without dripping off. Add 1 tablespoon flour or beer if needed.
    • Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Heat 1 inch canola oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, dip the onion rings into the mixture, then slide into the hot oil. The oil should sizzle but not ripple. Adjust the heat if necessary.
    • Be careful not to crowd the pan or the oil temperature will drop.
    • Cook the onion rings for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown.
    • Drain on the baking sheet. Keep warm in the oven until all are cooked. Repeat with the remaining onion rings.

    To assemble the sandwiches :

    • Spread the sauce on the inside of the rolls. Layer on the lettuce, then the tomatoes.
    • Top with the onion rings. Pass the extra sriracha at the table.
