Spray a 2 cup round baking dish with cooking spray. Trim root from onion so that it stands up. Slice 1/2" from top and remove peel. With a sharp knife, cut triangular slices to center of onion, slicing from top and stopping 1/2" from bottom, working your way around onion to make several "petals". Place in sprayed baking dish, drizzle with oil or spray with cooking spray. Cover and microwave 1 1/2 - 2 minutes or until onion is slightly tender and petals begin to seperate. Combine crumbs, salt and pepper, set aside. Beat egg white until foamy. Brush onto onion. (Make sure you go into the petals too) Sprinkle evenly with cornflake mixture. Bake for 10 - 12 minute, until lightly browned and crisp. To prepare dip combine all ingredients. Refrigerate. Serve onion hot with dip.
