To prepare the cauliflower cakes
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Arrange the cauliflower florets and potato wedges on a baking sheet and drizzle them with olive oil. Bake for 35 minutes, stirring once half-way through. Cauliflower florets should be browned and potato wedges should be soft when poked with a fork. Leave the oven at 400 degrees
  3. Add the roasted cauliflower and potato to a blender or food processor and pulse several times just until mixture is chunky but not smooth.
  4. Transfer the cauliflower potato mixture into a mixing bowl along with the lightly beaten egg, 1/2 cup of the parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Mix well to combine, then form patties out of the mixture
  5. Pour the panko breadcrumbs and the rest of the parmesan cheese (about 2-3 tablespoons) onto a plate and mix together.
  6. Dip the potato patties in the breadcrumb parmesan mixture to coat them. Place potato cake patties on a well-oiled or parchment-lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake cauliflower cakes for 25 minutes at 400 degrees, flipping them half-way through baking.
  8. Serve with yogurt sauce on top.
