Cauliflower and Ricotta meatballs


polpette di cavolfiore e ricottaThe cauliflower air fryer by emeril and ricotta meatballs are ideal to make vegetables such as cauliflowers, often snubbed by the majority of the population, appetizing 🙂 A recipe that does not require eggs, thanks to the consistency of the cauliflower and to the ricotta that acts as a binder. In this version the cauliflower and ricotta meatballs have been enriched with small pieces of raw ham, but the vegetarian version is just as tasty and interesting t fal oil less deep fryer!

Ingredients: (x 13 meatballs)
400 g of cauliflower reduced to florets
60 g of raw ham t fal actifry multi cooker (can be omitted)
250 g of ricotta
Salt to taste.
pepper as needed.
breadcrumbs for breading turky deep fryer

evo oil q.b.

Bake the steamer or pan with a finger of water for about 15 minutes or until they have softened. In my case, thanks to the Magic Cooker cover black fryer, 10 minutes were enough.
We transfer the cauliflower florets cooked in a bowl and reduce them to puree with the help of a fork.
Combine the cauliflower puree with ricotta, a pinch of salt, pepper if you like and, in my case, what you latita in the fridge for a few days, a couple of slices of raw ham in strips. We mix well to obtain a homogeneous mixture. We can also taste it since everything is already cooked air fryer recipes chicken tenders🙂
With our hands we get a lot of balls that we will go to bread in breadcrumbs and then place them in a baking dish or in a baking pan lined with parchment paper air fryer grilled chicken tenders.
We mix each meatball with a drizzle of olive oil and bake in a preheated oven at 220 ° ventilated mode for about twenty minutes. The last 5 minutes we can only use the grill function so as to toast the crust. If, like me, you have a latest generation air fryer (see mine here) it will only take 15 minutes at 230 ° without preheating xxl electric turkey fryer !!!
