Ingredients
For Cauliflower Tots
- 1 1/2 cup Cauliflower
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 egg large
- 2 tbsp almond flour blanched
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 oz cheddar cheese shredded
- 1 tbsp coriander
- salt and pepper to taste
Buffalo Chicken Topping
For Garnish
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup avocado optional
- 2 tbsp Green shallots
- 2 tbsp ranch sauce (homemade optional)
Instructions
- Before anything else, set your oven to 300°F to preheat.
Making Cauliflower Tater Tots
- Thoroughly wash the cauliflower then drain. Chop the florets into medium chunks on a cutting board. Transfer to a food processor and pulse to produce rice-like crumbs.
- Pour the cauliflower in a mixing bowl. Leave inside the microwave for around 2 minutes. By preference, sauté in a pan if a microwave oven is unavailable.
- Take out from the microwave once done. Stir well with the almond flour, garlic powder, egg, cheese, and coriander. Drizzle with the oil. Check the seasonings and add salt and pepper. Use a fork to mix the ingredients fully.
- Press the dough into circular pieces on a baking sheet. Use a cookie cutter to do this or simply flatten with a spoon if there are no cookie cutters around.
- Leave in the oven for 20 minutes. Remove once the Totchos are golden brown in color.
Making Buffalo Chicken
- Melt 3 tbsp of butter on a separate hot pan. Sauté the garlic and onion for 30 seconds before adding the shredded chicken and chopped red pepper. Spread the hot sauce on top. Cook for another 5 minutes.
- Transfer the browned cauliflower tots in another large pan. Leave for 5 minutes with the blue cheese and chicken. Serve with the garnish.
Garnish
- Chop some avocados and place it on top of the totchos together with chopped spring onion and sour cream. Coat with ranch sauce on the surface.
