Grilled Blooming Onions
Ingredients
- 3 large yellow onions
- 2-4 tbsp olive oil per onion
- 1 1/2 tbsp vegan parm
- 2 tbsp blackened seasoning
Vegan Parm
- 3/4 cup cashews
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
Lime Aioli
- 1/4 cup mayo
- 1 lime, juiced
- sprinkle of salt
- 1 tbsp water
Instructions
- Prep the onion cutting off about 1 inch of the top and bottom and then removing the outer layers of the onion. Turn the onion over so the base is on a flat surface and then starting at the top, cut lengthwise through the onion all around, leaving about ¼ inch on the bottom and not cutting through for every cut. Each cut should be 1-2 inches from each other so you end up creating 6-7 sections.
- Coat the onions well in oil with a pastry brush.
- In a food processor, blend all of the ingredients for the vegan parmesan cheese until the mixture is finely ground.
- Then sprinkle on the vegan parm + blackened seasoning and mix it in again with the oil by brushing it with the pastry brush.
- Spray the grill with oil and warm it to medium heat (200-300 degrees).
- Add the onions with the base down onto the grill and cook for 25 minutes or until onions become more translucent.
- While the onions are cooking, mix together the Lime Aioli in a small bowl.
- Remove carefully from the grill by using a spatula.
- Serve with the lime aioli as a dipping sauce and ENJOY!
