Spicy Cauliflower Fritters image

This recipe by Steve Manfredi was adapted from a recipe in Ottolenghi: The Cookbook and published in The Sydney Morning Herald Tuesday July 22, 2008. This is modern, quick, contemporary, dairy free, nut free finger food that can be packed for school lunches or picnics. I'd like to try this recipe using broccoli.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

320 g cauliflower, trimmed
120 g plain flour
3 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, chopped, plus some tender leaves to finish
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 shallots, finely chopped
4 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
3 pinches salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
500 ml extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Trim cauliflower into small florets to give desired total weight. Add to a pot of salted boiling water and simmer for 15 minutes or until very soft.
  • As it is cooking, whisk the remaining ingredients, except olive oil and parsley leaves, in a bowl to make a homogenous batter.
  • When cooked, drain cauliflower and set aside. Add warm cauliflower to batter and mix briskly to break it down a little.
  • Pour olive oil in a pan so that it is about 15mm deep, and heat.
  • When oil is very hot, drop in 3 tablespoons of mixture for each fritter.
  • Fry in small batches (making sure they are not touching) for about 3 minutes each side.
  • Drain on absorbent paper.
  • Eat hot, warm or cold.

These fritters were delicious! I used a mix of cauliflower and broccoli and they turned out great. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

These fritters were a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and they were much better.

I made these cauliflower fritters last night and they were delicious! I used almond flour instead of all-purpose flour and they turned out great. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
