How fun are these guys? For several years, I've seen this beautiful style of cutting and roasting onion in numerous places online. I can't believe it's taken me this long to try it. It seemed too simple for such spectacular results, but I gave it a whirl. Thrilled! .......... That was my reaction when I peeked into the oven after 20 minutes ............ WOW!

Chris I love your version of these and so nice to be able to dip in multiples to create an even more spectacular dish. Great appetizer, perfect for the upcoming holidays.

Pretty blooming onions, Chris! They look much healthier than the battered, deep-fried ones that I see at some restaurants.
Ginny says
Oh, it looks like a huge pink flower, much prettier than the deep fried version. That was the ONE bad thing about those onions, they were just loaded with sat fat!

I make these quite regularly and I fell in love instantly when I saw them in the Food and Drink magazine I gleaned them in.Beauteous!
Claire @ Claire K Creations says
This used to be my mum's favourite side dish at a restaurant we went to heaps when we were little! I might have to recreate it for her.
