CAULIFLOWER FRITTERS RECIPE WITH CUMIN AND MINT YOGURT

Steps:

• To make the yogurt, place all the ingredients for the mint yogurt in a bowl. Mix to combine and keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil and add the cauliflower. Simmer for 4 minutes, then (making sure to reserve 3 to 4 tablespoons of the cooking water) drain into a colander.
• Using a fork or a potato masher, crush the cauliflower, then transfer it to a large bowl.
• Add the flour, parsley, onion, eggs, cumin, cinnamon, turmeric, Aleppo pepper flakes, baking powder, and 1 ¼ salt and a good grind of black pepper. Add 3 tablespoons of the cooking water and mix well to combine.
• Line a large plate with paper towels.
• In a large saute pan (about 9 inches wide), heat the oil. Once the oil is hot, carefully spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter per fritter into the oil. You'll need to do this in batches (adding 4 to 5 fritters at a time) so as not to crowd the pan, and use a spatula to keep them apart. Fry for about 4 to 5 minutes, flipping over halfway through, until both sides are golden brown (mine took 2 minutes on each side).
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked fritters to the prepared plate and set aside while you continue with the remaining batches.
• Serve warm or at room temperature, with the mint yogurt on the side.

BASIC CAULIFLOWER FRITTERS

Steps:

• Place the cauliflower into the food processor and process until finely minced.
• Transfer the cauliflower into a large mixing bowl and add the rest of the ingredients, excluding the vegetable oil. Mix everything well. (You should have a nice, paste-like mixture. If the mixture looks a little too soft and moist - add some more flour.)
• Using an ice-cream scoop as a measure, form small, 1/3 inch-thick patties. You can make them smaller or larger depending on your personal preference.
• Fry the patties on medium heat, in a small amount of vegetable oil for about 2 minutes per side.
• Serve the fritters with sour cream or your favorite sauce.

HEALTHY CAULIFLOWER FRITTERS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and cook until just fork tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain thoroughly and transfer the cauliflower to a cutting board. Chop into very small pieces (about the size of peas or smaller) with a sharp knife.
• Measure 4 cups of the chopped cauliflower and place in a large bowl. (Reserve the rest for another use, such as cauliflower tots or mashed cauliflower.) Add the flour, eggs, garlic, 3 tablespoons scallions, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir until well combined.
• Line a plate with paper towels. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly coat it with olive oil. Working in batches, scoop 2- to 3-tablespoon mounds of the cauliflower mixture into the pan, spacing them at least 1 inch apart. Flatten each mound slightly with a spatula and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fritters once and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the fritters to the prepared plate. Serve warm, topped with yogurt or sour cream. Garnish with scallions.

PERFECT CAULIFLOWER FRITTERS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and cook until tender, 5 to 10 minutes; drain and break cauliflower into small pieces. Combine cauliflower, bacon, and green onions together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Sift flour into a bowl. Whisk milk, egg, Parmesan cheese, and a pinch of salt into the flour until smooth. Add milk mixture to cauliflower mixture and stir until batter is evenly combined.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and cook until golden brown on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.

CAULIFLOWER FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, 2 teaspoons canola oil, coriander seeds, and red pepper flakes. Stir to blend. Whisk in the beer. Set aside in a warm place for 15 to 20 minutes. It will puff up slightly, like bread dough.
• Gather the cauliflower in a medium-size bowl and use a small strainer to sprinkle it with an even layer of the paprika. Toss to blend.
• In a large pot, heat the remaining 6 cups oil to 375 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with paper towels and place the florets on the tray as they come out of the oil.
• Stir the batter slightly. To test the consistency of the batter and the temperature of the oil, put a couple of pieces of cauliflower on a slotted spoon and submerge them in the batter. It should coat the pieces lightly. Cook's Note: If the batter is too thick, add a little water to thin it out. If the batter is too thin, sift and whisk in a little more flour.
• Drain the excess batter and lower the cauliflower into the oil. It should bubble slightly and the cauliflower should gradually rise to the top. Fry until light brown, about 3 to 5 minutes and then transfer them to the prepared baking sheet. Fry the cauliflower in small batches. Season with salt, sprinkle with the cilantro and serve immediately.

CAULIFLOWER & CHEESE FRITTERS WITH WARM PEPPER RELISH

Steps:

• For the relish, soften the onion, peppers, ginger, garlic and chilli in the oil in a large saucepan. Once softened, add the mustard seeds, tomatoes, sugar and vinegar. Cover and simmer for 30 mins, then uncover and simmer for 10 mins more until soft and sticky rather than too saucy. Turn off the heat and stir in the sultanas. This relish will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to a month.
• Boil a large saucepan of water. Quarter the cauliflower and cut away most of the central large stalk. Weigh 350g cauliflower for the recipe and put the rest in the fridge to use another time. Very roughly chop the cauliflower - you should end up with a mix of small florets and some finer bits. Once the water is boiling, add all the cauliflower, cover and cook for 3 mins exactly. Immediately drain, then tip everything back into the saucepan and put back over a low heat, to dry out for a few mins.
• Put the flour into a large bowl with plenty of seasoning and gradually whisk in the eggs to make a smooth batter. Stir in the cheeses, lemon zest and most of the parsley, then gently stir in all of the cauliflower.
• Pop your oven on low so you can keep the fritters warm while you cook in batches. Place an old sturdy oven tray (anything flimsy might buckle) or a sturdy frying pan or griddle straight onto the barbecue. Wipe with some olive oil, then spoon on some mixture to make roughly 10-12cm round fritters. Fry for 3-5 mins until golden underneath and the batter just looks set on the top, then use a fish slice to flip the fritters over and press down with the back of the slice to squash any big cauliflower bits and flatten the bottoms a bit. Cook again for 3-5 mins until golden, then transfer to a parchment-lined tray and keep warm in the oven while you cook the rest.
• To serve, warm up the relish slightly, scatter the fritters with remaining parsley and add some lemon wedges.
