Ingredients
- 1 head cauiflower
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp chives, chopped
- 3 Tbsp almond flour (or coconut flour)
- 2 eggs (beaten)
- 1 tsp salt
- 2-4 Tbsp oil for frying
Instructions
- Cut the cauliflower into florets. Place the florets in a food processor and pulse until they become a rice like texture. Transfer the riced cauliflower to a large microwave-safe mixing bowl and microwave on high for 2 to 3 minutes, until cooked through.
- Remove the bowl from the microwave and set aside to cool for about 5 minutes.
- Add the melted ghee (or coconut oil), chopped chives, garlic powder, coconut flour, eggs, and salt to the mixing bowl. Mix until all the ingredients are well combined.
- Use your hands to form the mixture into 6 to 8 patties. Set aside.
- Heat the coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat. NOTE: You want the coconut oil to be deep enough to partially submerge the patties.
- Fry the patties in the coconut oil until browned, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the patties from the oil and place on a paper towel lined plate to remove any excess oil.
- Serve and enjoy!
