To flower an onion: Nifty gadgets that make these special cuts in one felt swoop are available at many kitchen stores and online. If you don’t have one, following is my attempt to describe the process of hand-cutting: Slice 1" off of the top of the onion, leaving the root end intact. Remove the papery skin. With a sharp chef's knife, make slices from the center of the onion outwards, cutting down to about 1/2" from the root end. Your cuts should look like the spokes of a wagon wheel. Make a total of 16 cuts, spaced evenly. Gently spread out the pieces of onions. What you will have is an onion which resembles a flower

Answer 2

What this requires is a sharp knife and a steady hand. Use a LARGE onion, it is easier. Peel the onion, and slice enough off of one end so that it will stay upright by itself. Now, slice the onion vertically in a series of 1/4 - 3/8" parallel slices, stopping 1/2" shy of the bottom. Rotate the onion 90 degrees, and repeat. Place the onion in ice water, and let sit for at least 1 hour. (This causes the 'bloom' to open up.) Mix 1/4 c flour with one egg and 1 T milk. Remove the onion from the ice water and drain very well. Coat with the batter, and fry in very hot oil until golden brown.
