Cauliflower cakes

A very good day everyone!

Dinner tonight was to be hamburgers on soft rolls with a pasta salad as the side.

Instead of a pasta salad I had a small head of cauliflower and thought squash the pasta salad idea and make some cauliflower cakes instead.  The recipe is similar to potato pancakes but using fresh cauliflower instead.

After cleaning the cauliflower I used my food processor.  I placed bite sized florets slowly into
Processor and kept pulsing until it was of the texture I wanted.

Here’s my approximate recipe

I small head cauliflower(cut into pieces)
2 eggs
3/4 tsp. Salt
Pinch pepper
1/2 tsp. Onion powder
1/4 tsp. Garlic powder
1/4 cup flour
Vegetable oil
Sour cream optional

Whisk eggs, salt, pepper. Garlic and onion powder together.  Fold in chopped cauliflower using a large spoon making sure all ingredients are incorporated.

In a large frying pan place a generous amount of oil ( 1/4 cup or more) on medium heat.  Once oil appears warmed make individual small to medium size patties.  Place in oil and allow to brown slowly.  Turn over and repeat frying until browned.  At this point watch heat they could start to brown quickly.

Remove with spatula and Place on a dish lined with a paper towel or two to remove some excess oil.

Serve with sour cream or possibly a little salsa!
