Vegetarian Pattie

Vegetarian Pattie

Let’s not go down the “Fake Meat Burger” road. Impossible Meats are doing very nicely from both positive and negative media coverage of the recent Burger King Impossible Whopper debacle in the USA and from a personal point of view (Tony) I have an bit of an issue with Vegetarian / Vegan meat ‘Substitutes’ being intentionally made to look like bits of dead animals. If you want to eat a vegetable based diet then good for you.

Ingredients:-

Finely grated vegetables of your choice – We used Mushroom, Beetroot, Carrots, Onion and Spring Onions
Grated raw Potato with the excess water squeezed out
Dried Parsley
Fried Mint
Flour (Gluten free in our case) – Just enough to make the mixture form-able
1 Beaten Egg
Salt & Pepper
Oil to fry

Method:-


(1) Mix everything excluding the Flour in a large bowl.
(2) Add just enough Flour so that you can form the Pattie shape and it won’t flatten under its own weight.
(3) Heat the oil in a frying pan to a medium heat and fry gently on both sides.
(4) Transfer to a grill tray in a pre-heated oven at160c and cook for a further 20 minutes

We actually have these as a side with a home made Pie and Peas. But they were very filling and would have worked pretty well with some salad and Cheese in a bun. (Still avoiding the Burger gig you’ll note!)

Stir-fried Chicken with Oyster and Spring Onion SauceWe roasted our own Chicken, but a cool roasted bird will do the job just as well.
 
Ingredients:-
 
½ a cool cooked Chicken
1 Onion
3 Cloves of Garlic
Mushrooms
Parsnips
Cauliflower Leaves, or white Cabbage
8 Cherry Tomatoes
Vegetable Oil for frying both the stir-fry and some in a pan to crisp some of the noodles
Paprika
Oyster and Spring Onion sauce
Soy Sauce (Gluten free is available from most supermarkets)
1/2 a pack of Rice Noodles
 
Method:-
 
(1) Chop the vegetables and grate the Garlic.
(2) Halve the Tomatoes and Mushrooms.
(3) Chop the Chicken meat into manageable pieces but not too small so it doesn't break down when fried.
(4) Add oil to a deep sided frying pan or Wok if you have one and heat to a high heat.
(5) Fry the Parsnips,Cauliflower leaves, Garlic and Onions. Any root vegetables will do.
(6) Stir in a teaspoon of Paprika.
(7) Add the remaining Mushrooms, Tomatoes and Chicken, pickled Vegetables and fry, turning as they heat through.
(8) Boil a pan of water then remove from the heat. Add the Rice Noodles and soften them. Drain and rinse with cold water and set aside.
(9) Add the Oyster and Spring Onion sauce and a hearty glug of Soy Sauce to the Stir-fry and mix well.
(10)  Keep a handful of noodles to fry and add the remaining Noodles into the Stir-fry and mix well.
(11) Heat a little oil in a pan and gently fry a hand full of the Rice Noodles one at a time until they are crispy.
(12) Serve and add the crispy Noodles to the top to add a little extra crunch.
