Do you have the pickiest eaters? I do! Men, it’s always a battle to ask them to eat healthily. So I have to get creative every time. But not all the time that I have time to prep meals especially during busy days. Thank goodness, a friend introduced me to this Basic Cauliflower Fritters. At first, I was hesitant because of the many years that I struggle to make the kids eat cauliflower. I was thinking that it’ll just be another waste but since this recipe requires only five ingredients and a total of twenty minutes to make, I immediately tried it. And I did not expect that the kids will devour these fritters like chips! From then on, these fritters have been their go-to snack and appetizer.
INGREDIENTS
5 c. chopped cauliflower florets
2 Eggs
½ c. all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
salt and pepper to taste
vegetable oil for frying
How to make Basic Cauliflower Fritters
Step 1: Into the food processor, place the cauliflower and pulse until finely minced. When done, transfer the minced cauliflower into a large mixing bowl along with the rest of the ingredients and the vegetable oil. Toss until you have a pasta-like mixture. Feel free to add more flour, if the mixture looks a bit too soft and moist.
Step 2: Shape small, 1/3-inch thick patties. To measure, use an ice cream scoop. You can make the patties smaller or bigger depending on how you like them.
Step 3: In a little amount of vegetable oil, fry the patties for about 2 minutes on each side over medium heat.
Step 4: Enjoy these fritters with sour cream or your preferred sauce.
