Steam or boil the cauliflower florets until tender. Once cooked, allow them to cool slightly and then mash them into a fine crumble using a fork or food processor.
Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess water. Repeat this step for the grated carrot to remove as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed cauliflower, grated zucchini, grated carrot, chopped spinach, green chilies, and grated ginger.
Add almond flour, psyllium husk, salt, cumin powder, garam masala, and chopped coriander to the vegetable mixture. Stir well to form a dough-like consistency. If the mixture feels too wet, add a little more almond flour as needed.
Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and shape each portion into a round or oval cutlet about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat coconut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the cutlets and shallow fry them for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crisp.
Remove the cutlets from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the low-carb vegetable cutlets hot with a side of mint yogurt dip or sugar-free ketchup!
