Last week or so someone requested this recipe.  It isn't from the Applebees
but hopefully will work. I haven't tried it but it's from the Taste of Home
magazine and so far everything I've made from there have been wonderful.
Enjoy.
Leaving the root end intact, peel the outer skin of the onion.  Cut a small
slice off the top.  Starting at the top of the onion and on one side, make
a cut downward toward the root end, stopping 1/2 inch from the bottom. Make
additional cuts 1/8 inch from the first until there are cuts completely
across top of onion. Turn the onion a quarter turn so the slices are
horizontal to you. repeat the cuts 1/8 inch apart from each other until
there is a checkerboard pattern across entire top of onion. In a small
bowl, make dip by combining mayonnaise, sour cream, chili powder and 1 1/2
teaspoons Cajun seasoning. Mix well and set asside. In a 1 gallon plastic
bag, combine flour and remaining Cajun seasoning. Place milk in a small
bowl.  Coat the cut onion in flour, then dip into milk and back into the
flour mixture.  Fry in enough oil to cover onion at 350^ for 5 minutes or
until golden, turning once. Remove from oil; place on serving plate.
Discard the very center of the fried onion blossom. Place a few poonfuls of
dip into the center of blossom and serve immediately.
