- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup low-carb breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for frying
Preparation 1. Prepare the Broccoli Mixture - Steam and Chop Broccoli: Steam the broccoli florets until tender, then finely chop them.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped broccoli, grated cheddar cheese, low-carb breadcrumbs, beaten eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
2. Form the Patties - Shape the Patties: Take a small handful of the broccoli mixture and shape it into a patty using your hands. Ensure that the patty holds together well. Repeat with the remaining mixture to form additional patties.
3. Cook the Patties - Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat.
- Fry the Patties: Place the patties in the skillet, leaving some space between them. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the patties are golden brown and crispy.
- Drain Excess Oil: Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serving Suggestions - As an Appetizer: Serve the broccoli cheese patties warm with a dipping sauce like garlic aioli or a spicy mayo.
- As a Side Dish: Pair the patties with a crisp green salad or a bowl of hearty soup.
- As a Vegetarian Main: Use the patties as a burger alternative, served on a bun with your favorite toppings.
Perfect Pairings: - These patties pair wonderfully with a tangy vinaigrette salad, roasted vegetables, or even a side of mashed potatoes for a more indulgent meal.
Freezing Instructions Freezing the Patties: - Before Cooking: Shape the patties and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze until solid, then transfer the patties to a freezer-safe container or bag. Store for up to 3 months.
- After Cooking: Allow the patties to cool completely, then freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer-safe container. Reheat in a skillet or oven before serving.
