Ingredients




1 Cauliflower
1 Cup (100g) Parmesan Cheese grated
2 teaspoons garlic powder
4 spring onions finely chopped
1/2 cup (56g) Cheddar Cheese grated
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation

1 Cut the cauliflower into florets, place in a saucepan of water, bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes until soft. 2 Drain the water and cool. 3 Remove the excess water from the florets. I either squeeze them in my hand or put them in my nut milk bag and squeeze. 4 Mash the cauliflower either by hand or blender. 5 Add the chopped spring onions, Cheddar cheese, 1 cup Parmesan cheese and seasoning. Mix thoroughly. 6 Make into croquettes shapes by hand. 7 Place the croquettes onto parchment/greaseproof paper and put into the fridge for about 30 minutes to firm up. 8 Heat the olive oil in a frying pan on a medium heat 9 Gently fry the croquettes, turning over until golden in colour. 10 Eat and enjoy!

About

Cauliflower croquettes are a low carb alternative to potato croquettes and here I’ve added cheese and onion.  With no breadcrumb coating they are also gluten free.
