Notato Croquettes


(Serves 4)
Ingredients

• ½ Medium cauliflower, chopped into chunky florets
• 2 Tablespoons of shallots
• 2 Garlic cloves, crushed
• 2 - 3 Tablespoons of low fat smooth ricotta cheese (try using 2, add another if mixture is too dry)

• Garlic and herb seasoning
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 Tablespoons of olive oil

Method

1. Steam the cauliflower florets until just tender.
2. Using a potato masher, mash the cauliflower until fine. Alternatively, you may blend the steamed cauliflower.
3. Squeeze the cauliflower to remove any excess juice.
4. Place the cauliflower in a large bowl, add the ricotta cheese, garlic, shallots, salt and pepper, then combine well.
5. Form the cauliflower mixture into thumb length by 2 cm wide croquettes.
6. In a large plate, spread out half the fibre, add a sprinkle of garlic and herb seasoning and a pinch of salt and combine well. This is used to crumb the croquettes, repeat with the other half of the fibre as required.
7. Dip the croquettes one by one into the beaten egg mixture, allowing excess egg to drip off, then crumb in the fibre mixture.
8. Place a large fry pan on low to medium heat and add half the olive oil.
9. Once the oil has heated, add half the crumbed croquettes and toast until golden on all sides. Make sure you keep an eye on them and turn as each side goldens. Repeat process with the remaining croquettes.
10. Makes about 12 croquettes. Serve as a vegetable side dish along side your protein serve, as a snack or as an entrée at dinner parties with a basic tomato salsa dip (pictured).
