Ingredients

• 2 medium Fresh beetroot
• 1 cup Quinoa
• 2 cups Water
• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 0.5 cup Chickpea flour
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 1 small, finely chopped Onion
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup, chopped Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine the quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

While the quinoa is cooking, peel and grate the beetroots using a box grater. Place the grated beets on a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out the excess liquid. This will ensure the patties are not too wet.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, grated beetroot, rolled oats, chickpea flour, minced garlic, chopped onion, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

Step 4

Add the olive oil, lemon juice, and chopped parsley to the mixture. Stir to incorporate all ingredients thoroughly until the mixture is cohesive and sticks together when pressed.

Step 5

Using your hands, form the mixture into patties about the size of a regular burger, around 1/2 inch thick. You should get around 8 patties.

Step 6

Place a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil. Once hot, add the patties in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 7

Cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and firm. If the patties are browning too quickly, reduce the heat slightly.

Step 8

Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Repeat the cooking process for any remaining patties.

Step 9

Serve the beetroot patties warm, either on a bun as a burger or as a standalone dish with a side salad.
