Quinoa, Leek & Feta Patties
Directions
Step 1
Prepare McKenzie's White Quinoa as per packet instructions.
Step 2
Heat the butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Stir the leek for 3 minutes or until soft. Transfer to a bowl. Add the McKenzie's White Quinoa, feta, flour, lemon rind and egg and mix until well combined. Season to taste.
Step 3
Shape 2 tablespoons of the mixture into patties. Add oil to a heavy based saucepan or wok (enough to shallow fry). Heat over medium-high heat. Cook patties in batches, for 2 minutes on each side or until golden. Transfer to a baking tray lined with paper towel. Cover with foil to keep warm before serving.
