Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cauliflower florets
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for frying

Method
 

  1. Start by washing your cauliflower and cutting it into small florets. Boil the florets in salted water for about 5 minutes until they are tender but still firm. Drain them well to remove excess moisture.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until you achieve a smooth batter.
  3. Gently fold the boiled cauliflower into your batter using a spatula. Be careful not to mash them too much; you want some chunks of cauliflower for texture.
  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Pour heaping tablespoons of batter into the skillet and flatten them slightly with your spatula.
  5. Fry each side for about 3–4 minutes until they turn golden brown and crispy.
  6. Once cooked, drain your fritters on paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Serve them hot alongside your favorite dipping sauce.
