Air Fryer Cheesy Cauliflower Fritters

Makes: 15

Ingredients

1 medium head of Cauliflower
3 Spring Onion/Scallions, chopped
2 fat cloves of Garlic, minced
1 Egg
1/3 cup of shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1/3 cup of shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1 cup of Italian Style Breadcrumbs
½ cup of Chopped Parsley
Cooking spray or mist
Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

Chop the cauliflower into big florets. Wash and pat dry.
Place them in the bowl of the food processor and pulse them in burst of 20 to 30 seconds till they resemble “rice grains”. I got little over 2 cups of “riced” cauliflower.
Place the “riced” cauliflower in a big bowl. Add the chopped scallions, garlic, breadcrumbs, both the cheeses and the egg and salt and pepper. Mix well.
Form equal sized patties. If the patties break easily, add more breadcrumbs. I got 15 patties.
Spray the prepared cauliflower patties lightly with cooking spray or mist.
Place the patties in the basket of the air fryer in a single layer, making sure that they don’t touch or overlap and leave ample space for air to circulate.
Air fry in batches at 390º F for 14 minutes, flipping each patty after 7 minutes.
Serve hot with ketchup or salsa or with Sriracha mayonnaise, like I did.

Notes

There is no need to steam the cauliflower. The cauliflower is “riced” very fine and it cooks to perfection in 14 minutes. Crispy on the outside and melty cheesy on the inside.
You can change the flavor by using spices like cumin or smoked paprika. Or changing the cheese. Pepper jack and Swiss cheese is another excellent combination
