CAULI FRITTERS

-

Makes 12, prep time 25 minutes, cooking time 10-15 minutes

INGREDIENT­S

■ 1 medium cauliflowe­r

■ 100g feta cheese, crumbled

■ 1 cup of breadcrumb­s

■ 2 spring onions, chopped

■ 2 garlic cloves, chopped

■ 1 free-range egg yolk

■ 2 tbsp of flour

■ 1 cup of chopped coriander

■ 2 tsp of dried thyme

■ Salt & pepper

■ 3 tbsp of vegetable oil for frying

■ Soft cheese, to serve

METHOD

Bring a deep pan of salted water to the boil, add the cauliflowe­r and simmer for five-six minutes. Remove from the heat and drain. In a large mixing bowl, combine the remainder of the ingredient­s. Once the cauliflowe­r has cooled, pour it into a food processor. Using the pulse setting, blitz the cauliflowe­r into a grain-like texture. Add the cauliflowe­r to the bowl and combine with the other ingredient­s, using your hands to mix into a dough. Divide the dough into 12, roll in your hands to form patties. Flatten them into disks, cover and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Then, heat the oil over a medium heat and shallow fry each patty until golden in colour. Place on a wire tray to cool slightly. Serve with some green salad and top the fritters with a little soft cheese.
