Ingredients:

• 2 cups cauliflower florets, roughly chopped

• A large handful fresh mint, roughly chopped

• 100g feta, crumbled

• ½ cup chickpea flour or cornflour

• ½ cup water

• 1 tsp sea salt

• Neutral oil for frying

Combine the cauliflower, mint and feta in a bowl.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, water and sea salt until smooth. Pour the chickpea batter into the cauliflower, and mix until well combined.

Heat 3-4 cm of coconut oil or olive oil in a deep saucepan. Drop tablespoons of the mixture into the oil, and cook in batches until golden. About 5 minutes.

Using a slotted spoon, remove the golden bites and place onto a paper towel to drain any excess oil.

Serve warm with herby aioli for dipping. Enjoy!
