INSTRUCTIONS


Melt butter in a large skillet and add the small cauliflower florets. Sauté for 3 minutes, then add minced garlic and ⅓ cup water.


Let the cauliflower cook on low for further 7 to 10 minutes, until soft but still with a bite to it and water has evaporated.


Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.


In the same skillet, sauté the red onion in 2 teaspoons of oil over low to medium heat for about 5 minutes until translucent.


Add chopped chard stalks to the onion and sauté for further 2 minutes. Now add apple cider vinegar and stir. Take off the heat and set aside.


In a separate bowl, place the eggs and beat lightly. Add ricotta, parmesan  cheese, cumin powder and mix to combine.


Add chard leaves to a large pan of simmering, salted water. Cook for 1 minute until the leaves have wilted. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Place on paper or kitchen towel and gently squeeze out any excess moisture.


With the back of a fork or a small masher, mash the cooled cauliflower slightly. Sprinkle over marjoram leaves, add cooked onion, ricotta-egg mixture and mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper.


Wipe the skillet clean and heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium - high heat. Cook 2 tablespoons of the mixture at a time in three batches, for 2 to 3 minutes each side or until golden.


Enjoy!


They will keep in the fridge for up to three days.
