Bacon Aioli Cauliflower Fritters

Bacon Aioli Cauliflower Fritters

INGREDIENTS
1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets or four cups
frozen cauliflower
1/2 cup whole wheat or all-purpose flour (almond flour
works as well)
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup milk
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tablespoons minced scallions, plus more for
garnishing
2 tbsp Terrapin Ridge Farms Bacon aioli for the mixture
Olive Oil to fry
Terrapin Ridge Farms Bacon Aioli Squeeze, for serving

DIRECTIONS
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; add the cauliflower and cook it just until fork tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer it to a cutting board and using a sharp knife, cut it into very small pieces (the cauliflower pieces should be the size of peas or smaller) Frozen chopped cauliflower will also work, simply microwave until warm 4-6 minutes.
Measure out 4 cups of the chopped cauliflower. Combine the cauliflower, bacon aioli, flour, eggs, milk, garlic, scallions, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl and stir until well combined. Line a plate with paper towels.

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly coat it with olive oil. Scoop out 2- to 3-tablespoon mounds of the cauliflower mixture into the pan, flattening the mounds slightly with a spatula and spacing them at least 1 inch apart. The fritters can also be fried in 1 Inch on vegetable oil, follow the same time instructions. Cook the fritters for 2 to 3 minutes, flip them once and cook them an additional 1 to 2 minutes until they’re golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the fritters to the paper towel-lined plate. Serve them warm topped with Terrapin Ridge Farms Bacon Aioli and a sprinkle of chive. Enjoy! Recipe and Photos Courtesy of Terrapin Ridge Farms
