Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup Kale chopped, finely
- 1/2 cup Rolled Oats ground into flour
- 1/4 cup Basil finely chopped, fresh
- 3 Tbsp All-Purpose Flour or gluten-free blend
- Salt to taste
- Pepper Flakes red, to taste
For Cooking
- Oil as needed, for shallow frying
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the water and ground flaxseed meal. Set aside for 5 minutes to thicken. This flaxseed "egg" will help bind the patties.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, finely chopped kale, ground rolled oats, chopped fresh basil, all-purpose flour (or gluten-free blend), salt, and red pepper flakes.
- Add the flaxseed mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined.
- Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil shimmers, carefully place the patties in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Flipping only once helps maintain the patty's shape.
- Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Serve warm with your favorite chutney or dipping sauce.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- For extra crispiness, lightly coat the shaped pattice in additional rolled oats before pan-frying.
- To make the pattice gluten-free, substitute the all-purpose flour with chickpea flour or rice flour.
- Add grated carrot or zucchini to the mixture for extra moisture and nutrients—just be sure to squeeze out excess water from the vegetables before mixing.
Expert Tips
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the patties. Give them enough space to brown properly.
- For even cooking, ensure the patties are of uniform thickness.
- Serve these patties with a variety of chutneys or dips for a flavorful experience.
Storage Instructions
- Let the pattice cool completely before storing.
- Store in an airtight container with parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking and sogginess.
