Ingredients

  • 4 cups water or salt-reduced broth
  • 2 cups cauliflower florets
  • 1 cup matchstick-cut carrots
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  •  cup grated Parmesan cheese
  •  teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Method

  1. Combine the water, cauliflower, and carrots in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook for 4 minutes, then drain well. Place the cauliflower and carrots on a few layers of paper towels and pat dry. Transfer to a cutting board and finely chop.
  2. Place the chopped veggies in a large bowl; add flour and stir to coat. Fold in the cheese, salt, pepper, green onions, and egg.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, swirling to coat. Put the fritter mixture into the skillet ¼ cup at a time, using a spatula to flatten each fritter into shape. Cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes, then carefully flip over and cook for about 4 minutes more. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil if needed.
  4. Serve with Smokey Garlic Aioli (optional, follow link to original recipe for recipe instructions)
