Instructions
 

  • To cook quinoa, use one cup of uncooked quinoa with 2 cups of water, bring to the boil and let simmer until cooked.
  • When your quinoa and sweet potato is cooked, let cool then add all ingredients into a mixing bowl and mash together until combined (can use hands).
  • Heat a frying pan with a little coconut oil and scoop out about a tablespoon full of mixture and squash together with your hands so it won't fall apart. Press onto frying pan and let cook for a few minutes, then VERY gently flip, you may want to use your hands with the spatular. repeat for remaining mixture.
  • For the sauce, simply place all ingredients into a blender, blend until smooth.
  • Store in a jar in the fridge after use. Should last about 3 days.
  • Steam greens such as bok choy, broccolini and place in bowl, add quinoa patties and top with tamari soy sauce, chilli, alfalfa sprouts, sesame seeds, and butter bean tahini sauce. Enjoy!
  • Alternately, you can make bigger patties and make burgers!
