Cauliflower Patties

Marc claims to not really like cauliflower, but he said he loved these!

 Cauliflower Patties  from this recipe from Gina's Weight Watcher's Recipes
 4 cups cauliflower
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup Pecorino Romano
2 tbsp. rosemary, finely chopped (the original recipe called for parsley)
2 tbsp. cup hot watersalt and pepper
1/4 cup olive oil

Steam cauliflower and let cool.  Roughly chop. I chopped it up pretty fine because I wanted the pieces to be smaller in the patties.  In a large bowl, combine cauliflower, flour, garlic, eggs, grated cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Add water and mix, making sure it does not become too runny.

On medium heat, add 1 tbsp of oil in a 10 inch skillet coating bottom of the pan. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to form fritters. Cook both sides until golden brown.  Add a little more oil to the pan, and repeat with the remaining batter.
