(Note from Larry: I have 2 other .. very similar .. recipes. Both have
almost identical ingredients. The difference lies in

the directions and Rose's comments.

I felt it was necessary to add the reference to Tony Roma's in the
title for this reason. 4/14/95) Slice onions crosswise and separate
into rings.

Combine milk, eggs and salt to taste in mixing bowl.

Soak onion rings in mixture 30 minutes.

Place pancake mix in shallow bowl.

Heat oil for frying in skillet to 375 degrees.

Remove onion rings from milk mixture, dip in pancake mix and place in
hot oil. Fry rings until golden brown. Drain fried onion rings on
paper towels.

Pack fried onion rings solidly, but loosely, without pressing, into
8x4-inch loaf pan. Bake at 400 degrees 10 to 15 minutes. Turn onto
serving plate.

Garnish with parsley.

"DEAR SOS: Would it be possible to get the recipe for the onion loaf
served at Tony Roma's restaurants? It's outstanding. -Betty "DEAR
BETTY: Thank you. We love the rings too. The Tony Roma restaurant
chain would not share its trade secret, but a close facsimile recipe
was developed by home economist, Donna Deane, director of The Times
Test Kitchen. Tony Roma's staff did, however, offer a tip: Pack the
onions loosely (not firmly) in the loaf pan so they do not become
soggy."
