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.

Ingredients

  • 1 Cauliflower
  • 1 Cup Parmesan Cheese grated
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 4 spring onions finely chopped
  • ½ cup Cheddar Cheese grated
  • ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

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