Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Cut the cauliflower into florets and rinse them thoroughly under cold water.
Step 2
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, then add the cauliflower florets. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
Step 3
Place the cooked cauliflower in a large mixing bowl and mash it with a fork or potato masher until it resembles a rough paste.
Step 4
Add the eggs, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Mix until completely combined.
Step 5
Using clean hands or a spoon, shape the mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick.
Step 6
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the patties in the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd them.
Step 7
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil if needed for additional batches.
Step 8
Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad for a complete meal.
