Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180 C / 350 F Cut the cauliflower in small florets, wash and drain the excess water in a colander/sieve.

Step 2

Beat the eggs in a small bowl.

Step 3

Place the drained cauliflower florets in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the chopped red onions, garlic, spring (green onions), parsley, dill, olive oil and the crumbled feta cheese to the bowl.

Step 4

Season with salt, ground black peppers and chili (red pepper flakes). Using your hands, combine all the ingredients. At this stage, you can check the seasoning – add more salt or peppers to your taste.

Step 5

Stir in the beaten egg and flour to the cauliflower mixture and combine well.

Step 6

Grease your baking dish with 15 ml/ 1 tbsp. olive oil and pour in the mixture to the baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven (180 C / 350 F) for 25 – 30 minutes, until the cauliflower florets have a nice light brown color on top.

Step 7

Slice and serve hot with a wedge of lemon and crusty bread aside. Cacik dip of yoghurt with diced cucumber and garlic or Shepherd’s salad with tomatoes, cucumbers and spring onion in lemon juice and olive oil dressing would go well with this delicious dish.
