For the Bloomin' Onion Sauce
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise Acts as the creamy base for the dipping sauce.
  • 2 tbsp ketchup Adds sweetness and a tangy kick.
  • 1 tbsp horseradish Introduces a spicy kick.
  • 1 tsp paprika Adds a touch of smokiness and color.
  • 1/2 tsp salt Boosts flavors of both the onion rings and the dipping sauce.
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano Contributes a hint of herbal notes.
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper Adds depth of flavor.
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper For those who enjoy a spicy kick.

Preparation

  2. Evenly distribute the frozen onion rings in the air fryer basket.
Cooking
