Cauliflower cheese fritters

~ Sophie

Warm, cheesy and immensely comforting. And beautifully easy to make. A great Sunday supper

  • 1 small cauliflower
  • 4 spring onions, finely chopped
  • 100g mature cheddar, grated
  • 200g plain flour
  • 1 heaped tsp grain mustard
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • Milk
  • Half tsp salt
  • Veg oil
  1. Trim the cauliflower and cut into small florets.
  2. Steam the cauli over boiling water for 7 mins, leave to cool for 10 mins and then chop into small pieces (approx half a cm).
  3. Mix together the flour, mustard, eggs, salt and enough milk to make a stiff batter
  4. Mix in cauliflower, cheese and spring onions.
  5. Fry large spoonfuls in veg oil over a medium heat until brown on both sides and cooked through

Makes 6 fritters

Here’s a version with green beans too, as we only had half a cauli and there were green beans that needed using up
