How to Make Millet Patties

  1. Rinse 3/4 cup of raw millet under cold water.
  2. Cook millet according to package directions or in a rice cooker until fluffy (approximately 20-25 minutes). Set aside to cool completely. You should have approximately 3 1/2 cups of cooked millet.
  3. While the millet is cooling, prepare your vegetables. Roughly chop 1 cup of carrots, 1 cup of zucchini, 1/2 cup of red onion, and 1/2 cup of bell peppers. Add these to a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, but not pureed.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the cooked millet, chopped vegetables, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 large egg, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce (or tamari), 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional). Mix well to combine.
  5. Gently form the mixture into 8-10 patties. Place 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs on a plate. Press each patty into the breadcrumbs to coat both sides.
  6. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  7. Arrange the patties on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  9. Serve immediately with your favorite cashew gravy (recipe below).
