Instructions
Whisk together all of the dipping sauce ingredients in a bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
Fill a large pot with oil leaving a few inches of space at the top. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until the thermometer reads 400 degrees.
Slice the top of the onion off only. Root side down, slice the onion diagonally about six times all the way across. Whisk the flour, cayenne, paprika, thyme, oregano, cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and 1 cup water.
Place the onion in a separate bowl, cut-side up, and pour all of the flour mixture on top. Cover the bowl with a plate, then shake back and forth to distribute the flour. Check to make sure the onion is completely covered in the mix, especially between the "leaves". Turn over the onion and pat off the excess flour. Keep the extra mix for your next onion.
Drop the onion into the wet mixture and completely submerge. Remove and let the excess egg drip off, then repeat the flouring process.
Pat off excess flour from the onion. Carefully lower the onion into the oil, cut-side down. Adjust the heat so the oil temperature stays close to 350 degrees. Fry about 3 minutes, then turn the onion over and cook for about 3 more minutes.
Let drain on a paper towel. Season with salt and serve with the dip.
