Cauliflower Hushpuppies Veg Hushpuppy recipe

Hushpuppies / Hush Puppy is a savory deep fried or baked dumplings or a great snack using cornmeal (maize) and traditionally served with fried catfish. They are especially popular throughout the Southern United States. I tasted lot of non -veg hush puppies but liked to recreate it using vegetables at home. So after reading few recipes I finally adapted them to make Cauliflower Hushpuppies , also recently tried without eggs and updated the recipe with Video Tutorial at the bottom of the post .

Notes

  1. If you add egg you will get the gorgeous brown color and puffy as shown in old picture.
  2. If you are adding egg then you can reduce baking powder to 3/4 tsp which also works.
