Cabbage Carrot & Green Peas Patties

Ingredients

1. Roughly Chopped/Shredded Cabbage – 4 cups
2. Diced Carrots – 1 large
3. Fresh or Frozen Green Peas – 1/2 cup
4. Garlic Powder – 1/4 tsp
5. Pepper Powder – 1/2 tsp
6. Red Chilly Flakes – 1 tsp (Alter according to your spice tolerance)
7. Dried Parsley Flakes – 1/2 tsp (optional)
8. Bread Crumbs – 2 to 4 tbsp (Use Whole Wheat for a healthier option)
9. Salt – to taste
10. Mayonnaise – as needed

Preparation Method

1. If using frozen green peas, thaw it in water. Using a food processor, grind all the vegetables into a coarse mixture. Be careful not to grind it into a smooth paste.
2. Transfer to a bowl and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, dried parsley flakes and red chilly flakes.
3. Add 2 tbsps of bread crumbs into the mixture and gently combine everything with your hands.
4. Take a small scoop of the mixture and try rolling it into a ball. If it doesn’t hold together, add 1-2 more tablespoons of bread crumbs.
5. Flatten each ball into patty of desire size and shape.
6. Heat 2 tbsp oil a non stick skillet. Lightly fry the patties for around 3 minutes on each side pressing down with a spatula to flatten it.
7. Since cabbage is the main ingredient used, these patties taste best with Mayonnaise.
8. Serve each patty on a bun along with lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise.

 Note

1. I made these patties without precooking the vegetables. If you prefer, you may blanch, steam or saute the cabbage, carrot & green peas for a few minutes before grinding it.
2. For convenience, you can use a bag of Shredded Coleslaw Mix instead of whole cabbage.
