How To Make a Blooming Tom Yum-ion

Chef Mei Lin of Nightshade in Los Angeles makes a blooming tom yum-ion so good that people demand it. Chef Mei’s recipe, which pays homage to the Outback Steakhouse Bloomin’ Onion, is made with a sweet Vidalia onion that's soaked in buttermilk, hand-dredged in a mix of flour and cornstarch, deep-fried, and dusted with tom yum spices. Finally, Mei makes an aerated coconut-lime ranch dip to complete this crowd-pleasing appetizer.
