Bloomin' Onion

As a rule we do not fry at home...but I really wanted a bloomin' onion and I really didn't want to drag the kids to a restaurant and pay the money to eat out so we decided to try it at home.  Mom had also given us some fish so we had fried fish(and french fries).  This recipe came straight from foodnetwork.com and was exactly like the breading I craved!  You can find the full recipe here.
