CAULIFLOWER, POTATO AND QUINOA PATTIES



Cauliflower, Potato and Quinoa Patties image

Cauliflower is a great vegetable to use in a burger, because it breaks down nicely so that it can be mashed along with potatoes to form a burger that stays together. I have always loved seasoning this vegetable with Indian spices, which is what I do here, with Aleppo pepper thrown into the mix. Black quinoa contributes texture, color and protein. Sriracha sauce is the perfect "ketchup" for this burger.

Categories     dinner, lunch, main course, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 9 to 12 patties, depending on size

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups finely minced cauliflower (about 12 ounces, or 1/2 medium cauliflower)
salt to taste
1 1/2 pounds potatoes, scrubbed, peeled if desired and quartered
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
2 teaspoons toasted cumin seeds, lightly crushed in a mortar and pestle
2 teaspoons nigella seeds
1 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper or mild chili powder
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/2 cup cooked black quinoa
1 cup mixed black and white sesame seeds
1/4 cup grapeseed oil
Sriracha sauce for serving

Steps:

  • Steam potatoes over 1 inch of boiling water until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and mash with a fork. The skins will break up in the mash.
  • Line steamer with cheesecloth and place cauliflower on cheesecloth so the small pieces don't fall through. Steam 5 to 6 minutes, until very tender. Remove from heat and stir into potatoes. Add remaining ingredients except sesame seeds and oil. Season generously with salt, combine well, taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Place sesame seeds in a wide bowl. Scoop out about 1/3 cup of cauliflower-potato mixture and roll into a ball (moisten your hands to prevent sticking). Roll in the seeds, then gently flatten into a patty shape. Place on a plate or sheet pan and continue to shape all of the patties. If you have time, refrigerate for 1 hour or longer (I have made these with no problem without refrigerating first).
  • When you are ready to cook, place a rack over a sheet pan and cover the rack with paper towels. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, heavy nonstick frying pan over high heat. When pan is hot, swirl to coat with oil. Turn heat down to medium. Place 3 to 5 patties in the pan (do not crowd), and cook until well browned on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and brown for 3 to 4 more minutes. Remove to rack. Heat remaining oil in the pan and cook remaining patties. Remove paper towels from underneath patties and keep them warm in a low oven until ready to serve. Serve topped with Sriracha, with a salad on the side.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor to grate the cauliflower. This will save you time and effort, and it will also help to create a more uniform texture for the patties.
  • Be sure to squeeze out as much moisture from the cauliflower as possible. This will help the patties to hold together better.
  • Use a variety of spices and herbs to flavor the patties. This will help to create a more flavorful and interesting dish.
  • Don't overcook the patties. They should be cooked through, but they should still be slightly tender.
  • Serve the patties with your favorite dipping sauce. Some good options include ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.

Conclusion:

Cauliflower patties are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional meat patties. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are looking for a vegetarian or vegan option, or you are simply looking for a healthier way to enjoy a burger, cauliflower patties are a great choice.
