Cheese cauliflower fritters are a delicious, crispy, and tasty side dish. This recipe is typical of Italian cuisine and requires few ingredients. The cauliflower is cooked and then mixed with flour, egg, cream, and grated Parmesan cheese to achieve a soft and flavorful texture. The fritters are then fried in hot oil until they become golden and crispy. They are perfect to serve as an accompaniment to meat or fish dishes.
