Fine, unknown veggie
I don´t know if it was because the boy was way too busy at the till or that he was one of these young lads that won´t walk into the kitchen except to get a cool drink out of the fridge, But when my turn arrived at the queue, he lifted my cauliflower, looked at it and asked me "This is a cauliflower, isn´t it?" I nodded.
Then, he pressed on the corresponding key.
"Ah, I can tell you don´t cook or shop much, do you?" said I.
Cauliflower, however, is a fine and healthy veggie and a versatile one as well.
What shall I make with this couliflower I´ve bought?
I can boil it up with some potatoes and to dress it with a vinagrette, or I can make it with a besamel sauce and topped with Parmesan grated cheese, but I can also make some fritters of couliflower.
They´re easy to make, They don´t require much cooking and they´re really tasty.
There we go, then.
FRITTERS OF COULIFLOWER
Get a good cauliflower and spare its flourettes to boil them. When they´re boiled, percolate them and leave them aside while you make a batter with egg, a couple of spoonfuls of flour and a tea spoonful of baking powder. Mix it all well. Add one or two cloves of garlic and parsley chopped into the batter. Pour abundant oil in a frying pan and fry each battered flourette when oil is hot.
There! The boy wasn´t sure if that precious veggie was a cauliflower and what delicious bites we can make with one.
