Ingredients

  • 1 medium head Cauliflower
  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
  • 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 medium, chopped Onions
  • 2 chopped Green chilies
  • 1 inch piece, grated Ginger
  • 3 tablespoons, chopped Cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 2 tablespoons Oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until you achieve a rice-like texture.

Step 3

Microwave the riced cauliflower for about 5 minutes or until tender, then let it cool. Use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out excess moisture.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, almond flour, egg, and half a teaspoon of salt. Mix well to form a dough.

Step 5

In a pan, heat butter over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and fry until they crackle.

Step 6

Add chopped onions, green chilies, and ginger. Sauté until the onions are translucent.

Step 7

Stir in coriander powder, garam masala, turmeric powder, and the remaining salt. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 8

Remove from heat and add chopped cilantro. Mix well and allow the mixture to cool.

Step 9

Divide the cauliflower dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each into a ball and flatten into thin discs using your hands or a rolling pin between two sheets of parchment paper.

Step 10

Place a spoonful of the onion filling onto one half of each disc. Fold over and press the edges to seal the samosa.

Step 11

Brush each samosa lightly with oil.

Step 12

Place the samosas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 13

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown.

Step 14

Serve hot with your favorite low-carb chutney or dip.
