These are definitely some awesome onion rings, but the recipe is worth it for the homemade aioli alone. Roasted tomatoes blended with mayo makes a dipping sauce that's miles ahead of your standard spicy mayo.

1 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups buttermilk
1 pinch cayenne pepper
salt, to taste
4 large Vidalia onions, peeled, and cut crosswise into 3/4" slices
4 cups peanut oil
4 cups all-purpose flour, seasoned with salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Grilled Tomato Aioli
2 plum tomatoes, grilled, seeds and skin removed, coarsely chopped
2 cups good-quality mayonnaise
3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 pinch cayenne pepper
salt, to taste
Combine buttermilk, flour, cayenne and salt in a large bowl until smooth. Soak the onion rings in the batter for 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Fry for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and season immediately with salt.
Serve with tomato aioli for dipping.
