Steps:
- To make sauce: In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, 1/3 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon oregano, a dash ground black pepper and cayenne pepper; mix well. Keep sauce covered in refrigerator until needed.
- To make the batter: In a medium bowl, beat egg and add milk. In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, cayenne pepper, paprika, ground black pepper, oregano, thyme and cumin; mix.
- To slice onion: slice 1 inch off of the top and bottom of the onion and remove the papery skin. Use a thin knife to cut a 1 inch diameter core out of the middle of the onion. Now use a very sharp, large knife to slice the onion several times down the center to create 'petals': First slice through the center of the onion to about three-fourths of the way down. Turn the onion 90 degrees and slice it again in an X across the first slice. Keep slicing the sections in half, very carefully until the onion has been cut 16 times. Do not cut down to the bottom of the onion. (The last 8 slices will be difficult, be careful).
- Spread the 'petals' of the onion apart. To help keep them separate you could plunge the onion into boiling water for 1 minute and then into cold water.
- Dip the onion into the milk mixture and then coat it liberally with the flour mixture. Again separate the petals and sprinkle the dry coating between them. Once you're sure the onion is well-coated, dip it back into the wet mixture and into the dry coating again. This double-dipping ensures you have a well-coated onion because some of the coating will wash off when you fry the onion.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or deep pot to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Make sure you use enough oil to completely cover the onion when it fries.
- Fry the onion right side up in the oil for 10 minutes or until it turns brown. When the onion has browned, remove it from the oil and let it drain on a rack or paper towels. Open the onion wider from the center so that you can put a small dish of the dipping sauce in the center.

HOW TO MAKE A TEXAS ROADHOUSE CACTUS BLOOM
Preparing a Texas Roadhouse Cactus Blossom is simple and can save significant funds over visiting the restaurant for the fried onion appetizer. The Cactus Blossom, served at Texas Roadhouse restaurants, is very similar to a Bloomin' Onion, served at Outback Steakhouse, and Awesome Blossom, served at Chili's, and a Texas Rose, served at Lonestar Steakhouse. Learning how to make an onion blossom like they do at Texas Roadhouse is simple. The Texas Roadhouse Onion Blossom recipe features a whole onion which is sliced to separate the petals, then coated in a seasoned batter and deep fried. The finished dish gives the appearance that the onion has "bloomed" and opened up, exposing the many crispy petals within. Serve the Cactus Blossom with the spicy dipping sauce recipe made with horseradish that they use for the onion blossom at Texas Roadhouse or substitute ranch dressing or any other type of dip. For a more kid-friendly taste, ketchup or Thousand Island dressing my also be used as dipping sauces.

Steps:
- Mix mayonnaise, sour cream, chili sauce, cayenne pepper and horseradish sauce in a medium mixing bowl until well combined.
- Divide sauce among small condiment cups. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Heat the oil in a deep fryer or larrge stock pot to 375-400° Fahrenheit.
- Prepare the seasoned flour mix by combining flour with garlic powder, paprika, sugar and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Whisk seasonings and flour to incorporate well.
- Slice 3/4 inch of the root end of each onion.
- Make 12-16 slices into the trimmed end working in a clockwise manner. Do not cut completely through the onion, leaving about an inch of uncut onion near the opposite root end.
- Remove about 1 inch of the center petals from each onion.
- Toss the onions in the seasoned flour to coat well. Peel back the petals slightly to allow the flour to reach between each petal, but do not remove.
- Combine remaining flour, paprika, pepper, cornstarch, salt, and garlic salt and beer in a second large mixing bowl. Whisk well until smooth.
- Dip the floured onions in the batter. Allow excess batter to drip off each onion.
- Use a fryer basket to carefully place the battered onions, one at a time, into the hot oil. Cook for about 90 seconds, flip and cook for an additional 90 seconds.
- Transfer onions to a plate lined with paper towel to drain.
- Place on a serving platter and insert the cup of dipping sauce in the center of each onion.
