Onion Bloom
Makes 2 servings
Ingredients
1 large onion
1/4 ounce corn flakes, crushed
Pinch red pepper
Pinch seasoned salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 2-cup round baking dish with
cooking spray. Trim root end of onion so it stands upright. Slice off 1/2"
from top and remove peel. With sharp knife, cut triangle slices to center of onion,
slicing from top down and stopping 1/2" from bottom. Work your way around
to make several 'petals'. Spray with cooking spray and place in microwavable
safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high for 3-4 minutes or until onion is slightly
tender and petals have begun to separate. In small bowl combine corn flake
crumbs, seasoned salt, and pepper; set aside. In medium bowl whip egg white
until foamy. Dip onion in egg white, coating petals thoroughly. Place in prepared
baking dish and sprinkle evenly with corn flake mixture. Bake until lightly
browned and crisp (about 10-12 minutes).
