    raw bacon?

    Delicious... And I'm only new to eating cauliflower. You'd never know it was cauliflower in it. Needed to add a little extra flour as suggested and we cooked in the oven instead of frying which turned out perfect. the hard part is trying to wait for them to cool down a little bit to eat them. Enjoyed with some aioli. Thanks for the great recipe.
