Equipment
- air fryer
Ingredients
- 1 medium cauliflower
- ½ cup Cheddar cheese grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup oat fiber
Instructions
Make & cook the cauliflower rice
- Cut the cauliflower into stalks and place in a food processor. Pulse until you have cauliflower rice.
- Place the cauliflower in a bowl with 3 tablespoons water. Cover the bowl with clingfilm and cook in the microwave for 5 minutes.
- Remove the bowl from the microwave and allow to stand for 2 minutes. When removing the clingfilm be careful not to scold yourself with the steam.
- Squeeze any excess water from the cauliflower using either a nutbag or a large strong, paper towel.
Assemble the Tots
- Place the cooked cauliflower rice into a medium bowl and add the seasoning and grated Cheddar cheese. Mix well.
- Add the oat fiber to bind the mixture. If the cauliflower mixture is too moist then add more oat fiber.
- Using clean, damp heads, shape the cauliflower mixture into tots (small barrel shapes). A ball shape works too.
Cooking the Tots
- Lightly spray the air fryer tray with oil.
- Place the cauliflower tots in a single layer on the tray and give a quick light spray with oil.
- Cook at 200C/400F for 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
