To prepare, you will typically combine the contents of this mix with a liquid, such as water or milk, and an egg. The exact amount of liquid may vary slightly depending on your preference for batter consistency. Once the batter is formed, it is then carefully dropped into hot oil and fried until golden brown and cooked through. The onion flavor is already incorporated, so no additional seasoning is usually needed for the base mix.
