These herby cauliflower fritters call on a clever shortcut ingredient to make prepping a breeze: frozen riced cauliflower. Yes, the now ubiquitous (and often unfulfilling) \u201creplacement\u201d for rice creates the ideal base for these flavorful, moreish fritters, removing the frozen staple from its low-carb confines and allowing its true culinary merits to shine. Here the riced cauliflower is mixed with tender herbs, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and breadcrumbs to create a meatball-like mixture that gets formed into patties and fried until crisp and golden. Paired with a zippy lemon yogurt and scattered with sliced red onions and even more herbs, they make an ideal vegetarian dinner.<\/p>\n

\n

Preparation<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. \n

    Step 1<\/h4>\n

    Whisk together 1\u2153 cups whole-milk Greek yogurt<\/strong>, 2 tsp. finely grated lemon zest<\/strong>, 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice<\/strong>, 1 garlic clove, finely grated<\/strong>, 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil<\/strong>, and \u00bd tsp. Diamond Crystal or \u00bc tsp. Morton kosher salt<\/strong> in a medium bowl. Taste sauce and season with more salt if needed. Set aside.<\/p>\n

    Step 2<\/h4>\n

    Cook one 10-oz. bag frozen riced cauliflower<\/strong> according to package directions until very tender. Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool 5 minutes. Add 1 large egg<\/strong>, 1 large egg yolk<\/strong>, 2 oz. Parmesan, finely grated (about 1\u00bd cups)<\/strong>, 1 cup panko<\/strong>, \u00be cup finely chopped mixed tender herbs (such as dill, chives, and\/or parsley)<\/strong>, 2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1\u00bc tsp. Morton kosher salt<\/strong>, \u00bd tsp. freshly ground pepper<\/strong>, remaining 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped<\/strong>, and remaining 2 Tbsp. finely grated lemon zest<\/strong>. Using clean hands, mix and knead slightly to smash cauliflower pieces into panko until texture is uniform. Spoon out 2-tablespoonful portions; roll into smooth balls. (You should have about 14.)<\/p>\n

    Step 3<\/h4>\n

    Heat \u00bc cup extra-virgin olive oil<\/strong> in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Cook balls in a single layer, undisturbed, until golden brown underneath and fritters release easily, about 3 minutes. Turn onto opposite side; cook until golden brown underneath, about 3 minutes. Shake pan to encourage balls onto an unbrowned side (fritters will have flattened slightly); cook, turning occasionally to brown, just until firm, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.<\/p>\n

    Step 4<\/h4>\n

    Toss \u00bc medium red onion, thinly sliced<\/strong>, 1\u00bd cups baby arugula<\/strong>, and some herb leaves<\/strong> in a medium bowl to combine. Drizzle with oil, season with salt, and toss again to coat.<\/p>\n

    Step 5<\/h4>\n

    Spread reserved sauce over a platter and arrange fritters on top. Scatter salad over; season with pepper.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
