If you use eggs this is not vegan.
Ingredients
⅔ C quinoa, rinsed
¼ C spelt flour
¼ C kale steamed
¼ C chopped onion
¾ tsp Himalayan salt
¼ tsp ground black pepper
½ C cilantro
2 egg replacer portion or
2 eggs
¼ C olive oil
Preparation
To cook the quinoa heat a large saucepan on medium and spray with olive oil. Add quinoa and cook for 5 minutes, stirring to prevent burning. Add a cup of vegetable broth or water and bring to a simmer. Reduce to low and cover. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and allow it to sit covered for five more minutes. Cool.
In a large bowl combine cooled quinoa with spelt, kale, onions, salt, pepper and cilantro. Lightly beat eggs in a small bowl and add to quinoa mixture.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Form quinoa into balls or ovals and carefully add to hot oil. Cook for about a minute on each side. Drain on cloth.
Alternatively place parchment paper on oven safe round dishes. Place a round patty on each dish and bake at 350º for twenty minutes. If desired serve with cilantro sauce.
