Copycat Outback Blooming Sauce
Ever had the blooming onion at Outback Steakhouse?
I know Outback isn’t the only place that makes this appetizer, but their version is famous. It’s like a cross between an onion ring and a full-blown petunia. They turn one onion into this giant blossom that fills a whole plate. Each section of tender onion coated in crisp, fried batter sticks out from the center, ready to be pulled free.

And in the middle, there’s this cup of wonderful, zesty sauce that just takes the whole thing to the next level. Sure, the blooming shape is cool, but it’s the sauce that really makes it special.
Luckily, you don’t need to go to Outback Steakhouse to experience this flavor explosion. I’ve worked a little magic in my own kitchen and come up with a version you can easily whip up at home. The best part is, you don’t have to go to all the trouble of making the blooming onion to enjoy the sauce. It’s equally good with plain onion rings, French fries, or Tater Tots. It may not look as awesome on the plate, but it’s just as fantastic in your mouth.

The sauce indeed looks yummy! Feel like taking a bite. 😀
We love this recipe with onion rings! I have tried others, but this one is the best! Thank you for sharing!
I substituted ketchup and creamy horseradish with cocktail sauce, because I didn’t have creamy horseradish. I don’t know what the exact version tastes like, but I still enjoyed it.
This copycat is DEAD ON RIGHT! Tastes just like Outbacks! Great JOB
I love this recipe. I didn’t have sour cream nor ingredients to make it. I substituted avocado and it was just like sour cream! Looooove it!
