Recipe Notes
- If you want to serve them as appetizers, make them smaller.
- You can make these cauliflower patties the day ahead. Keep them covered in the refrigerator and take them out when you're ready to cook.
- Fresh cilantro, thyme or chives could be substituted for the parsley.
- To change up the flavor, stir some smoked paprika, turmeric, curry powder of your favorite spice into the batter.
Here's how to make it:
- Put the cauliflower, garlic and parsley into a food processor or blender. Pulse to coarsely chop. (You may have to do this in batches.) Add the cheese, 4 tablespoons of the breadcrumbs and salt and pepper, to taste. Pulse until the mixture becomes "sticky," but not mushy. Do not overmix.
- Form the mixture into patties and coat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs.
- Heat about 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 2 minutes per side or until golden. Remove to a paper towel and repeat with remaining patties.
