Potato (and cauliflower) cakes
Cakes
This is my first ode to food52 recipe. I always check out the weekly contests on this website, and I usually follow up and see what other people are contributing. Sometimes I get inspired and purchase ingredients I've never tried, or I buy something I usually skip over because someone in the house dislikes it. My own first attempt for the Cauliflower Contest week was less than delicious; I caramelized some mushrooms and the florettes from half a head of cauliflower, and then did something spicewise I [intentionally, most-likely] can't remember. So I had a half head of cauliflower that I knew my husband wasn't keen on eating, and my kids wouldn't even look at. But other food52-ers were submitting very interesting recipe ideas: mashed cauliflower "potatoes", cauliflower cakes, things fried in bacon fat. So this is what I did that week. Probably a little bland for some people, these "potato' cakes could easily be spiced up for whatever they accompany. My kids devoured these several times before they realized they were eating cauliflower. Food52 has pulled us out of some serious eating ruts! This recipe is a little labor intensive, so I usually double it and freeze some for later.
