Ingredients
  

1 medium head of cauliflower, grated

1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)

1 large egg, beaten

1/4 cup finely chopped green onions

1/4 cup almond flour (or regular flour)

1 clove of garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil or cooking spray for frying

Instructions
 

Begin by preparing the cauliflower. Grate the medium head of cauliflower using a box grater or a food processor until you have fine shreds.

    Transfer the grated cauliflower to a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial for achieving crispy hash browns.

      In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, shredded cheese, beaten egg, chopped green onions, almond flour, and minced garlic. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until everything is well combined.

        Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil (or use cooking spray).

          Once the skillet is hot, take a handful of the cauliflower mixture and shape it into a patty. Place it in the skillet and flatten it slightly. Repeat with the remaining mixture, leaving space between each patty.

            Cook the hash browns for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.

              Once cooked, remove the hash browns from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

                Serve warm, and enjoy your delicious cauliflower hash browns!
