When it comes to Cauliflower Fritters, I want the works. Lots of herbs, melty cheese, and all that savory goodness.
Serves: 8
Ingredients
20 oz. Cauliflower Florets
2 Green Onions, chopped
2 Garlic Cloves, minced
¼ cup Chopped Italian Parsley
Zest of 1 Lemon
1 Egg
½ cup All Purpose Flour
¼ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
¾ cup Havarti (or other melty cheese)
½ tsp. Salt
½ tsp. Black Pepper
3 tbsp. Neutral Oil, for frying
Italian Parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Boil the cauliflower florets for 5 minutes and then drain.
Place the florets in a large mixing bowl and mash them (it’s okay if it’s a little lumpy). Then mix together with the green onions, garlic, parsley, lemon zest, egg, flour, grated parmesan, Havarti, salt, and pepper.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Scoop the cauliflower mixture out to create patties. You should get roughly 8 large fritters.
Working in batches, fry the fritters in the oil for 4 minutes, then flip them and continue to fry for an additional 4 - 5 minutes. Once cooked, remove and set them on a wire rack over paper towels to drain.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce and sprinkled with fresh parsley.
