HOW TO MAKE A TEXAS ROADHOUSE CACTUS BLOOM

Steps:

• Mix mayonnaise, sour cream, chili sauce, cayenne pepper and horseradish sauce in a medium mixing bowl until well combined.

• Slice 3/4 inch of the root end of each onion.

• 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.
