Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 large head cauliflower, florets finely chopped (2 cups)
salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp ground coriander
1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
1/8 tsp ground allspice (optional)
3 large egg whites
1 1/2 tsp extra virgin olive oil, plus more for frying
6 tbsp whole-milk yogurt or 6 tbsp sour cream
salmon caviar, for garnish

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F
Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil.
Add the cauliflower and cook for 2 minutes.
Drain well, then spread the cauliflower on a paper towel–lined baking sheet to cool; pat the cauliflower dry.
In a small bowl, combine 1/2 teaspoon of salt with the baking powder, cumin, coriander, pepper and allspice.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt at high speed until firm peaks form.
Fold in the cauliflower and the spice mixture.
Heat a large nonstick skillet.
Very lightly oil the skillet.
Drop tablespoons of the fritter batter into the skillet and cook over moderately high heat until browned on the bottom, about 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to moderate and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes.
Transfer the fritters to a large rimmed baking sheet.
Repeat with the remaining batter, coating the skillet with oil as needed.
In a small bowl, blend the yogurt or sour cream with the 1 1/2 teaspoons of olive oil and season with salt.
Reheat the fritters in the oven, about 2 minutes.
Garnish each fritter with 1/2 teaspoon of yogurt sauce and some caviar.
Transfer to a platter and serve.
*MAKE AHEAD The fritters can be fried earlier in the day and kept at room temperature. Reheat before serving.
