I'm not an Aussie....But I'll share my recipe with y'all. I have been told that my recipe is close or even better than the "Outback Steakhouse Bloomin' Onion"Enjoy! .
Bloomin Onion 4 Vidalia or Texas Sweet Onions
Batter: 1/3 Cup Cornstarch 1 1/2 Cup Flour 2 tsp. Garlic −− minced 2 tsp. Paprika 1 tsp. Salt 1 tsp. Pepper 24 oz. Beer
Seasoned Flour: 2 Cup Flour 4 tsp. Paprika 2 tsp. Garlic powder 1/2 tsp. Pepper 1/4 tsp. Cayenne pepper
Mix cornstarch, flour, and seasonings until well blended. Add beer, mix well. Cut about 3/4" off top of onion and peel. Cut into onion 12 to 16 vertical wedges, but do not cut through bottom root end.
Remove about 1" of petals from center of onion. Dip onion in seasoned flour and remove excess by shaking.
Separate petals and dip in batter to coat thoroughly. Gently place in fryer basket and deep−fry at 375 to 400 1 1/2 minutes. Turn over, and fry an additional 1 1/2 minutes.

If you like Outbacks you'll love a realtively new place called Dakota's Steakhouse.
I did some advertising for their first restaurants and they are really , really good with prices a little better than outbacks.
They have a wonderful dish of sauteed mushrooms , and with a steak order you can order a lobster tail for $9.99 Excellent steaks and a wondrful half chicken they have a dozen rub combinations for and will cook and season as you like.
Making me hungry talking about it. As I have moved out of their vicinity.
They started locally in Ohio , but have been branching out quick. Last I talked to them they has stores in Indiana and KY now.
If they make it your way give it a try you won't be sorry. Hubby and I always smile when we know we will be traveling through Ohio and going right past a Dakota's Steakhouse.

We are always the last place to get the good eating places. I love Cracker Barrel for the country cooking but have to go out of town to eat there. Olive garden is good too but we don't have one of them either.
