Cornmeal Onion Rings with Curry Tomato Sauce - Feast Your Eyes

Onion rings are the fried-food lover's way to banish remorse. It's a vegetable, and it has anti-inflammatory properties; maybe it even helps fight cholesterol. So what's a little oil among friends? Works for me. Blogger sweetbeetandgreenbean coats the rings with corn meal and herbs instead of flour, which makes for a crisp batter. (Get the recipe here.) And instead of a big pool of ketchup she spices it up with a curried tomato sauce. (Of course, if you want to cut down on the fat, oven-fry the onions, as in this recipe.) Serving them on a bed of red cabbage adds color and fiber, and, for those of us who live in world where onion rings trump the rings of Saturn, that means it's practically a balanced meal. Or so I say as I reach for another crunchy ring.
