Ingredients

• 1 medium head, grated or riced Cauliflower
• 1 medium, grated Zucchini
• 1 small, grated Carrot
• 1 cup, finely chopped Spinach
• 0.25 cup, finely chopped Coriander (Cilantro)
• 1 small, finely chopped Green Chili
• 1 teaspoon, grated Ginger
• 0.5 cup Almond Flour
• 2 tablespoons Ground Flaxseed
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Garam Masala
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 4 tablespoons, for shallow frying Olive Oil

Directions

Step 1

Wash and prepare all the vegetables. Grate the cauliflower, zucchini, and carrot. Finely chop the spinach, coriander (cilantro), and green chili.

Step 2

Using a clean kitchen towel or a cheesecloth, squeeze out the excess water from the grated zucchini and cauliflower. This step helps keep the cutlets from being too moist and falling apart.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the grated and chopped vegetables (cauliflower, zucchini, carrot, spinach, coriander, and green chili). Add the grated ginger, almond flour, ground flaxseed, cumin powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Mix the ingredients thoroughly until they come together to form a soft dough. If the mixture feels too wet, you can add an additional tablespoon or two of almond flour.

Step 5

Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty or cutlet shape, about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 6

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place half the cutlets in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp. Repeat the process with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and cutlets.

Step 7

Once cooked, transfer the cutlets to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Step 8

Serve warm with a side of mint yogurt dip or any low-carb sauce of your choice.
