Potato Cauliflower Patties Vegan Recipe

These vegan patties combine mashed potatoes with grated cauliflower and carrots, seasoned with herbs like oregano, basil, and chives, plus jalapeño for a mild kick. Flaxseed acts as an egg substitute to bind the mixture, which is coated optionally with breadcrumbs and can be pan-fried or baked for a crispy exterior and tender interior, making a versatile plant-based snack or side.

Description

This vegan recipe uses cooked mashed potatoes as a base mixed with sautéed onions, garlic, jalapeño, and grated cauliflower and carrots for texture and mild vegetable sweetness. The seasoning includes oregano, basil, chives, salt, and pepper to add herbal depths, while flax meal soaked in water replaces eggs for binding. Additional breadcrumbs are incorporated for structure, with an optional coating of extra breadcrumbs for a crunchy crust.

The patties are shaped into small rounds, chilled to firm up if pan frying, and cooked until golden brown on both sides in a skillet or baked at high heat for a crisp finish. The patties offer a balanced texture with a soft interior alongside a lightly crispy surface. Their mild heat and herb flavors suit various dipping sauces or condiments.

They can also be made gluten-free by substituting oats or gluten-free breadcrumbs, making them suitable for those avoiding gluten. The recipe yields about ten patties suitable for snacks or as a side dish.
