Onion Preparation

Cooking

Dipping Sauce

Method

Onion Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onion

    Peel the outer skin off the onion. Cut about 1 inch off the top of the onion and discard. Place the onion root side down on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, make 12-16 vertical cuts from the top of the onion to the root, being careful not to cut all the way through. Turn the onion and make the same cuts in the opposite direction to create 'petals'. Rinse the onion under cold water to help separate the petals.

Batter Preparation

  1. 2

    Mix the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until evenly mixed. Gradually add the cold water while whisking until the batter is smooth and has a thick consistency.

Frying

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, deep pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature.

  2. 4

    Coat the Onion

    Carefully dip the prepared onion into the batter, ensuring the batter coats all the petals evenly. Allow any excess batter to drip off.

  3. 5

    Fry the Onion

    Once the oil is hot, gently place the coated onion into the oil, root side down. Fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to turn the onion halfway through for even cooking.

  4. 6

    Drain the Onion

    Once cooked, carefully remove the onion from the oil and let it drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Dipping Sauce Preparation

  1. 7

    Make the Dipping Sauce

    In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish sauce, and lemon juice. Mix well until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.
