Peel the onions but keep the roots intact so they hold together. Rinse and cut each onion into about 12 wedges without cutting all the way through – it should open like a flower.
Prepare the breading: place the flour and breadcrumbs in separate bowls or plates, beat the egg, and heat the oil in a frying pan to about 180°C.
Dip each onion first in flour, then in egg, and finally in the Ditrói breadcrumbs, making sure to coat between the petals as well. Fry in hot oil until golden brown.
Mix the melted cheese with sour cream, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley to make the sauce.
Serve the crispy onion blossoms warm with the cheese dip on the side.
Enjoy!
