I had a lot of cauliflower in my fridge and wanted other ways to use it. So found a broccoli recipe and tweaked it suit.

These cooked up nicely, and lovely with a fresh garden salad and maybe a chili plum sauce.

Equipment

• Bowl
• Saucepan
• Frypan
• Food Processor
• Coffee Grinder (for Chia)

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• ½ Cup Uncooked organic Quinoa (Makes 1 1/2 Cups Cooked Quinoa
• 1 Medium Head Organic Caulifower Broken in to florets
• ½ Cup Organic Mushrooms Coarsely chopped
• ½ tsp 15 Immunity Mushroom Mix
• ½ tsp Organic Garam Masala
• ½ tsp Organic Turmeric Powder
• ½ tsp Organic Coriander Powder
• 2 Tbsp Organic Olive Oil
• ¼ Cup Organic Almond/Buckwheat flour
• ¼ Cup Organic fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tbsp Organic Chia seeds (ground)
• 2 Tbsp Filtered Water
• 1 tsp Himalayan Salt

Instructions

 

• Firstly, Rinse Quinoa, then place small saucepan and just cover and bring to boil. Simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. You want the water to be just gone from cooking. Now, let it stand for 5 minutes or so with the lid on.
• While cooking the quinoa, steam Cauliflower and chopped mushroom together until tender. Drain and let cool AND dry. I put my steamer on the window silll to dry, otherwise pat down with paper towels. Make sure the cauli and mushrooms are dry.
• Now further drain the quinoa so all the water is removed.
• Put cauliflower, mushrooms, quinoa, in food processor and pulse until well mixed together, depending on how chunky you want the patties to be. I blitzed mine so they were well chopped up.
• In a bowl, add cauliflower, mushrooms. Grind chia seeds, add filtered water to thicken and add to Cauliflower mix.
• Fold in Immunity mushroom mix, garam masala, salt, chopped parsely and mix further.
• Now for the flour. Just half the quantity of flour and fold in and mix well, so everything sticks, you may need to use all of it as it is a sticky mixture.
• Mold into patties,
• Heat saucepan to a low-medium heat if you want the well cooked look on the outside, place the patties that you are going to cook and sizzle for a minute each side to get that golden look, then reduce down a bit and cook for a further 5 mintues. Try not to move the patties around too much as they firm up well on their own.
• This mixture makes up quite a bit so you can refrigerate for later on or make up some in advance.
