• 1 cup, shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup, riced cauliflower
• 0.25 cup green peas

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine almond flour, cream cheese, and mozzarella cheese.

Step 2

Microwave the mixture for 1 minute, stir, then microwave for another 30 seconds until cheese is melted.

Step 3

Add the egg to the mixture and mix until a dough forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.

In a skillet over medium heat, add some cooking oil.

Step 5

Add cumin seeds and sauté until they start to crackle.

Step 9

Remove from heat and stir in chopped cilantro. Let the filling cool to room temperature.

Step 10

Preheat oil in a pan for frying over medium heat.

Step 11

Remove dough from the refrigerator. Divide into eight portions and roll each piece into a small circle.

Step 12

Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling to form a triangle and press the edges to seal.
