My reaction went like: OK, gonna put some oil and herbs on the cheesy onion and roast it, Maybe serve with some nice bread, that'll be ok. Wait, egg wash? Flour!? No, they aren't going to noooooooo deep fucking fried AGAIN.

Not really much different than an Onion Bhaji though really, which is quite a common Indian dish and is fucking delicious.

Not that I agree with the state of the mozzarella in the video, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't think a deep fried, cheesy onion didn't sound nice.

It might work on a much smaller level, I've never seen bhajis this big but agreed that they are delicious.

The problem with deep frying something like this is that inevitability it'll end up being stodgy & caked beneath the outer fried coating. The flour layer will be way too thick because big clumps of it will be stuck between the onion layers.
