    Instructions:<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Prepare the onion:<\/strong>\n
        \n
      • Cut off the top and bottom of the onion and remove the outer skin.<\/li>\n
      • Place the onion upside down (flat side down) and make vertical cuts around it to create \u201cpetals\u201d (about 12 cuts).<\/li>\n
      • Do not cut all the way through\u2014leave about 1 cm at the base so the petals stay connected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
      • Prepare the coating:<\/strong>\n
          \n
        • In a bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.<\/li>\n
        • In another bowl, whisk the egg with milk.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
        • Coat the onion:<\/strong>\n
            \n
          • Dip the onion in the egg mixture first, then coat it in the flour mixture, making sure the flour gets between each petal.<\/li>\n
          • Repeat if you want a thicker coating.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
          • Cook in the airfryer:<\/strong>\n
              \n
            • Preheat the airfryer to 350\u00b0F (180\u00b0C) for 3 minutes.<\/li>\n
            • Place the onion in the basket, spray lightly with oil.<\/li>\n
            • Cook for 15-20 minutes until golden and crispy.<\/li>\n
            • Optionally, flip carefully after 10 minutes for even browning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
            • Serve:<\/strong>\n
                \n
              • Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
