Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash and finely chop the cauliflower into small, bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose white wheat flour, ground cumin, dried coriander, baking powder, and turmeric powder. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and eggs until smooth.
- Pour the yogurt and egg mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Add the finely chopped coriander leaves and chopped cauliflower to the batter. Stir gently to distribute evenly.
- Add the lemon juice and mix well.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of oil.
- Spoon about 2 tablespoons of batter per fritter onto the hot pan, flattening slightly with the back of the spoon.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
- Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve warm, optionally with a side of yogurt or your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips:
- For a healthier option, consider baking the fritters in the oven instead of frying them. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown.
- Make sure to chop the cauliflower finely to ensure even cooking and a uniform texture in the fritters.
- Feel free to experiment with additional herbs and spices to suit your taste. Adding a touch of chili powder or fresh parsley can bring a new dimension to the flavors.
- If the batter seems too thick, you can add a little water or more yogurt to reach the desired consistency.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
Your cauliflower fritters are now ready to be enjoyed! Serve them hot with a side of your favorite dipping sauce or yogurt for an extra burst of flavor. These fritters make an excellent addition to any meal or a great standalone snack that's both healthy and tasty.
