Mini Onion Blossom Bites
Our love goes onion on for these lil bites.
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Appetizer
Ingredients
- 10 pearl onions
- 1 egg, beaten
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- For the sauce:
- ½ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup ranch
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped chipotle in adobo sauce
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat oil to 375 degrees.
- With a sharp paring knife, carefully cut off the non-root end of the onions. Make 8 to 12 small slits around the top of each onion, being careful not to cut all the way through. Use your hands to help separate the “petals”.
- In a medium bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Dip onions in egg, followed by the dry mixture. Carefully drop onions into oil and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. They will bloom as they cook. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a small bowl, combine all sauce ingredients. Dip cooled onion blossoms in sauce and enjoy!
