Nidhi's Keto Kitchen: Cauliflower Tots

Serves 2-3

Prep Time: 30 mins

Ingredients:

• Cauliflower 2 lb

• Cottage cheese 14 oz

• Onions finely chopped 1 cup

• Chives 1 tbsp

• Salt 1 tsp

• Egg 1

• Bipro unflavored protein powder 2 scoops (50 gms)

Preparation:

1. Preheat oven to 375°. Grease a large baking sheet with cooking spray or layer it with parchment paper.

2. Wash and dry the cauliflower, cut the florets and grate them in a food processor to grate them in riced texture.

3. Microwave the cauliflower rice for 5 mins. Let it cool and strain the cauliflower to let the extra water strain out. (do not throw this water keep it aside for later use if needed). Mash them a little.

4. Break the egg and whip it to mix the egg yolk and white.

5. In a bowl add onions, beaten egg, grated or mashed cottage cheese, chives, salt, mashed cauliflower and whey powder. Mix everything well and make a soft dough use the water strained from cauliflower if needed.

6. Make small rolls of the dough and place them on the baking tray. Place them in a way that none of them touch each other or overlap.

7. Bake them for 10 mins, flip and cook further 5 to 10 mins till you get the golden color.

8. Serve them with mint-coriander chutney, refer to my other recipe. Or can serve them with a mix of Walden Farm Ketchup and sriracha.
