Quinoa Patties Ingredients
Quinoa - Quinoa is the base in this recipe, it's healthy, delicious and a great ingredient for any kind of patties or burgers.
Vegetable Broth - Instead of using a cube of vegetable broth to cook the quinoa, we tossed freshly harvested lovage, also known as wild celery, into the boiling pot of quinoa, as lovage has a very intense and similar flavor
Carrots & Parsley - Both of these vegetables are great and very tasty vegetable additions, but don't hesitate if you want to add other vegetables like spinach, beetroot, cilantro, celery, zucchini, etc.
Onions & Garlic - Garlic and onions are an absolute must in this recipe, as they add a tangy-sweet, herbaceous, and pungent flavor.
Oat Flour - Using oat flour is extremely beneficial as it both binds and keeps these patties together as well as adding moisture.
Curry Powder, Coriander Powder, Salt, Pepper - For aroma and taste!
Quinoa Patties Tips
Individualize - These patties are extremely versatile as you can use whatever spices and veggies you like.
Crispiness - Almost any patty or burger tastes even better when it's nice and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, so let it cook a little longer to achieve that nice crispiness.
Shaping - We used ⅓ cup to divide the patty mixture into equal sized patties, of course you can also use a cookie spoon, 1/4 cup, or simply nothing at all.
Storing - These patties only take minutes to prep, then simply freeze the leftovers and serve as a quick dinner the next time you're short on time.
