Blooming Onion

Blooming Onion Categories: Appetizers
Nb persons: 0
Yield:
Preparation time:
Total time:
Source:

    1/2 teaspoon  cajun seasoning
    2  eggs, beaten
    1 tablespoon  buttermilk, (or any milk)
    3/4 cup  Panko bread crumbs, (Italian Seasoned)
    1/2 cup  flour
olive oil in cooking oil sprayer For Dipping Sauce:
    3 tablespoons  mayonnaise
    1 tablespoon  ketchup

1
Cut the top off of the onion (pointy end) to create a flat surface.

2
With root side up (hairy looking circle), cut "flower petals" just below the root. Cut the onion into 4 wedges first, then cut each wedge in half. Repeat until wedges are about 1/4 inch thick. You should end up with "petals" all around the onion.

3
When you turn the onion over, it will look like a flower "bloom". Carefully separate the layers.

4
Mix flour with Cajun seasoning in one bowl. Mix eggs and buttermilk in a second bowl. Place Panko bread crumbs in a third bowl.

5
Dredge the onion in flour, and shake off the excess. Dip into the egg mixture, and then finally the breadcrumbs.

6
Put the Panko crusted onion into the air fryer basket. Spray with oil. Place a piece of foil over the onion like a tent.

7
Set the air fryer to 390 for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and cook for another 5-10 minutes until desired crispiness. (Your cook time will depend on the size of the onion.)
