Galley notes
Boat challenges
- If you do not have an air fryer, this recipe can be made in both an electric and a gas oven working with the same temperature in either, cooking time may need to be increased by 3-4 minutes.
Basic rules
- Cauliflower, egg, crumbs. You can add any spice of your choice, chill powder, curry powder, what ever you fancy they all work.
How ingredients behave
- I have not experienced anything unusual with the ingredients in this recipe so it should be pretty straight forward.
Galley tips
- No panko crumbs: Any savoury biscuit can be used even if not fresh and crunchy anymore, old sour dough bread crumbs also works like a charm, just crush them well and continue, if they have flavour be sure to test for salt before adding more.
- No Parmesan: Leave it out.
