🛒 INGREDIENTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- 1 medium head cauliflower
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Salt, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
👩🍳 INSTRUCTIONS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1️⃣ Prepare the cauliflower
Wash the cauliflower and cut it into florets.
Steam or boil until tender, but avoid making it overly soft.
Drain thoroughly and allow it to cool slightly.
2️⃣ Remove excess moisture
This step is important for getting a good texture.
Place the cooked cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel and gently squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.
3️⃣ Make the mixture
Place the cauliflower in a bowl and mash it.
Add the eggs, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic, onion powder, paprika, parsley, pepper, and salt.
Mix until everything is evenly combined.
4️⃣ Shape
Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Spoon the mixture onto the tray and form small rounds or patties.
Keep them relatively even in thickness so they cook consistently.
5️⃣ Bake
Lightly brush or spray the tops with olive oil.
Bake at 425°F (220°C) for approximately 18–25 minutes, turning once if needed, until golden and firm around the edges.
6️⃣ Serve
Allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm. 🌿

🔥 THE METHOD
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The key to this recipe is removing as much water as possible from the cooked cauliflower.
Too much moisture can make the mixture soft and difficult to brown.
The eggs help bind everything together, while mozzarella and Parmesan add richness and a golden finish.
The result is a flavorful, flourless bite with crispy edges and a tender center. 😍

📜 A LITTLE HISTORY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Cauliflower has been cultivated for centuries and became an important vegetable in European cooking.
Because of its mild flavor and versatile texture, cooks have found countless ways to transform it into soups, gratins, fritters, patties, and roasted dishes.
Modern home cooks also frequently use cauliflower as an alternative base in recipes traditionally made with flour or other starches.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌿 NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Cauliflower provides nutrients including vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, and fiber.
Eggs and cheese contribute protein, while the vegetables and herbs add flavor and nutrients.
Although this recipe is relatively low in carbohydrates compared with many flour-based alternatives, it is not carb-free. The exact nutritional content depends on the ingredients and portion size.
