Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 6 cups Cauliflower, roughly chopped from 2 small heads
  • 3 cloves Garlic, crushed
  • 1 cup White whole wheat flour
  • 2 large Eggs, beaten
  • 0.5 cup Pecorino Romano, grated plus 2 tbsp
  • 0.25 cup Parsley, finely chopped
  • 0.33 cup Hot water
  • 0.75 tsp Kosher salt and pepper
  • 4 tsp Olive oil

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Steam the cauliflower in 2 1/2 cups water over medium heat until tender, about 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and quickly rinse under cold water to stop it from cooking.
  • Chop the cauliflower into smaller pieces with a knife once steamed and measure to make 5 cups. Set aside the rest for another use.
  • In a large bowl, combine the steamed cauliflower, flour, garlic, eggs, grated cheese, parsley, 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt and pepper. Add water so that batter becomes slightly more dense than pancake batter.
  • Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, add 1 teaspoon of oil coating bottom of the pan.
  • Use a 0.25 cup measuring cup to form fritters. You can fit 4 fritters at a time, flattening them slightly with the back of the measuring cup.
  • Cook until golden brown, about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes on each side. Repeat with the remaining oil and batter 3 more times.

Notes

Serve these fritters warm with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs!
