  1      medium        white onion
                       corn oil for deep-frying
    1/2  cup           all-purpose flour
  2      teaspoons     rub (recipe follows)

Preheat oven to 250 F. and line a large baking sheet with paper towels.
With a mandoline or other manual slicer, slice onion paper-thin and separate
into rings.
In a deep kettle or deep fryer heat 2 inches oil to 375 F.
While oil is heating, in a large bowl stir together flour and chipotle rub.
Add onion rings and toss well to coat. Transfer onion rings to a large sieve
and shake gently to remove excess flour mixture.
Add a handful of onion rings to hot oil and fry, stirring, until crisp,
about 30 seconds, transferring with a slotted spoon to baking sheet to
drain. Fry remaining onion rings in same manner. (Onion rings may be made 15
minutes ahead and kept warm in a 250 'F. oven). La Parilla: The Mexican
