🥕 Ingredients (Makes 6–8 medium patties)

Ingredients for healthy veggie patties
  • 1 cup grated carrot
  • 1 cup boiled and mashed potato or sweet potato
  • 1/2 cup steamed peas or corn
  • 1/2 cup cooked quinoa or oats (for texture)
  • 2 tbsp chickpea flour or whole wheat flour (binder)
  • 1 green chili (finely chopped)
  • 1 tsp cumin powder
  • Salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste
  • Fresh coriander or mint (optional)

👨‍🍳 How to Make It

Step 1: Prepare the Mixture

Mixing veggie patty ingredients

Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl. Mash and mix well until the mixture binds together. If it's too wet, add more flour. If it's too dry, add a few drops of lemon juice or water.

Step 2: Shape the Patties

Shaping patties

Divide the mixture and shape it into round, flat patties using your hands or a mold. Keep them uniform in size so they cook evenly.

Step 3: Bake the Patties

Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crispiness.

Step 4: Air Fry Option

Air frying veggie patties

If using an air fryer, set it to 180°C (356°F) and cook for 10–15 minutes. Flip halfway and air fry until golden and firm. No oil required!

🌿 How to Serve
