Method

1

Cut cauliflower into florets and bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add cauliflower and cook for 8–10 minutes until fork-tender. Drain thoroughly in a colander, pressing gently to remove excess water.

2

Transfer cauliflower to a large bowl and mash with a fork until chunky but cohesive. Stir in beaten egg, grated cheese, minced onion, garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper until combined.

3

Divide mixture into 4 equal portions and form each into a firm, flat patty about 3/4 inch thick. Let rest for 2 minutes if time allows.

4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, place patties in the pan and cook for 4–5 minutes until golden and crispy on the bottom.

5

Carefully flip patties and cook on the second side for 4–5 minutes until golden. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.

6

Toast bread if desired. Spread condiment on both halves. Layer leafy green, cauliflower patty, tomato slice, and raw onion. Close burger and serve warm.
