Quinoa Patties

Moraya Ugwu • October 6, 2020

This is one of my favorite vegetarian recipes from. Quinoa is a great source of protein and fiber which provides you with a lot of energy. Another great thing about this recipe is that it goes great with any dressing, I highly recommend a greek tzatziki sauce!

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups cooked quinoa, at room temperature
  • 4 large eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped fresh chives
  • 1 yellow or white onion, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 cup bread crumbs, plus more if needed
  • Water, if needed
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 

Materials:
  • Big mixing bowl
  • Wooden spoon
  • Cookie tray
  • Frying pan

Instructions:
Cook quinoa (check packaging for specific instructions)
Let the quinoa cool, I tend to put it on a cookie sheet and place it in the freezer or fridge for 15-20 minutes.
Mix quinoa with eggs and salt until completely combined.
Add cheese, garlic, chives and onions and bread crumbs, at this point the mixture should start being clumpy.
Let sit for a few minutes so everything sticks together..
Take a spoon and form 1 inch patties with your hands.
Once you have created all of your patties add oil to the frying pan and cook until both sides are a golden brown or until as crispy as you desire!

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do!
