Dip onion in egg mixture, then into flour mixture. Dip again into egg mixture then flour mixture, making sure onion is well coated.

Place onion in hot oil. Deep-fry until golden brown and tender about 15 minutes; drain on paper towels. Place onion on a serving plate. Sprinkle with salt and cayenne pepper.
