Rainy weather calls for fried & super yummy food. I made this super easy 4 ingredients healthy ( kinda) fritter recipe. Oh well… who wants to slave all day in kitchen🤔
2 1/2 cups grated cauliflower, packed / use potatoes instead
2 eggs
1/4 cup +2 tbsp.gluten free breadcrumb (or almond meal or oat flour if low carb)
1 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped
1/4 tsp salt
Pinch of chilli flakes – if desired
3 tbsp canola oil to fry
Instructions
Cut the florets of one small cauliflower head.
Place the florets into a food processor with the S blade attachment.
Process until it forms a thin cauliflower rice.
Measure 2 1/2 cups of packed grated cauliflower and place into a large mixing bowl.
Add eggs, almond meal or oat flour, fresh herbs, salt and chilli if you like.
Combine with a spatula until it forms a fritter batter.
Use your hands to shape small fritters – you should makes about 16 fritters with this recipe. The smaller and thiner they are the faster it will fry. Make sure you squeeze the batter very well into your hands to first form a ball.
Place the cauliflower ball onto a plate covered with parchment paper and flatten with your hand – about half cm thick, 5 cm diameter.
In a frying pan , warm the oil under medium heat.
When the oil is very hot add the cauliflower fritters and cook for at least 5 minutes on one side before flipping them on the other side.
Fry 3 more minutes on the other sides and remove them from the pan when perfectly fried.
Cool down on a plate covered with absorbent paper to remove the excess of oil.
Repeat until all the fritters are cooked. You may have to adjust the oil level for the following fritter adding 1-2 tbsp of canola oil.
Serve hot with mashed avocado or as a vegetarian sandwich filling.
If you are like me always low on time yet trying to eat, feed best AND a one pot cooks all kind of gal then this is the dish for you!! Perfect for breakfast, lunch, dinner or in-between meals😉
