Como fazer Quinoa Spinach Patties
- Cook 1 cup of quinoa according to package directions. Fluff with a fork and let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 cups packed fresh spinach (chopped), and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs.
- Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined. Let the mixture rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the breadcrumbs to absorb any excess moisture.
- Adjust the consistency of the batter by adding more breadcrumbs if it's too wet, or a tablespoon of water if it's too dry. The batter should be moist but hold its shape.
- Shape the mixture into 6-8 patties, approximately 1/4 cup in size each.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Carefully place the patties in the hot skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through. You may need to cook in batches to ensure even cooking.
- Serve immediately and enjoy! These patties are delicious on their own or served with a side of your favorite salad or vegetables.
