Ingredients
- 2 lrg Sweet onions -- unpeeled
- 1/2 c. Mayonnaise
- 1/2 c. Lowfat sour cream

- 2Â 1/2 tsp Cajun seasons -- divided
- 1Â 1/4 c. Flour

Directions
- Last week or possibly so someone requested this recipe. It isn't from the Applebees but hopefully will work. I haven't tried it but it's from the Taste of Home magazine and so far everything I've made from there have been wonderful.
- Leaving the root end intact, peel the outer skin of the onion. Cut a small slice off the top. Starting at the top of the onion and on one side, make a cut downward toward the root end, stopping 1/2 inch from the bottom. Make additional cuts 1/8 inch from the first till there are cuts completely across top of onion. Turn the onion a quarter turn so the slices are horizontal to you. repeat the cuts 1/8 inch apart from each other till there is a checkerboard pattern across entire top of onion. In a small bowl, make dip by combining mayonnaise, lowfat sour cream, chili pwdr and 1 1/2 tsp. Cajun seasoning. Mix well and set asside. In a 1 gallon plastic bag, combine flour and remaining Cajun seasoning. Place lowfat milk in a small bowl. Coat the cut onion in flour, then dip into lowfat milk and back into the flour mix. Fry in sufficient oil to cover onion at 350^ for 5 min or possibly till golden brown, turning once. Remove from oil; place on serving plate.
- Throw away the very center of the fried onion blossom. Place a few poonfuls of dip into the center of blossom and serve immediately.
