Perfect Cauliflower Fritters Recipe

Perfect Cauliflower Fritters Recipe

  • 1/2 small head cauliflower, broken into florets
  • 3 slices cooked bacon, chopped
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and cook until tender, 5 to 10 minutes; drain and break cauliflower into small pieces. Combine cauliflower, bacon, and green onions together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Sift flour into a bowl. Whisk milk, egg, Parmesan cheese, and a pinch of salt into the flour until smooth. Add milk mixture to cauliflower mixture and stir until batter is evenly combined.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and cook until golden brown on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.
