Cauliflower Fritters Vegan Style

Cauliflower Fritters Vegan Style

I received a post this morning from a friend who shared a video with me on how to make cauliflower fritters, but the recipe included egg and dairy. I decided to take a stab a non-dairy version. Check the rough recipe!!!

ROUGH RECIPE:

1 head of cauliflower
1/2 cup water
1/2 red onion
1/4 cup of cashews
1/4 cup of cashew milk
1 tbs of flax seeds
2 cloves of garlic
2 tsp sea salt
2 tsp fresh cracked pepper
2 tsp cumin
1/2 cup spelt flour
1 cup of blue corn meal

DIRECTIONS:

STEP 1: Cut cauliflower into small pieces and place in large pot with water and steam on low until cauliflower is soft and mash-able. Strain all the water off and mash cauliflower with a fork (mash potato consistency) and then reserve.

STEP 2: Make binding agent (Cashew Cream) In a food processor, combine cashews, cashew milk, and flax seed (and a pinch of salt). Blend until smooth and creamy. Remove from blender and add to mashed cauliflower.

STEP 3: In the food processor, chop garlic and onions to a fine consistency and then add to cauliflower mixture.

STEP 4: To the cauliflower mixture, also add spelt flour, cumin, sea salt, nutritional yeast, and pepper. Incorporate all ingredients really well.

STEP 5: Heat oil in a medium sized frying pan. Form medium size fritters. Dust the fritters in the blue corn meal and fry in the oil. Continue until all of the fritters are cooked.

Plate and enjoy!!
