Ingredients:
  • 4 green shallots, coarsely chopped
  • 500.00 ml broccoli florets or cauliflower florets
  • 1 small zucchini, chopped
  • 250.00 ml chopped kale
  • 250.00 ml fresh mint
  • 625.00 ml cooked quinoa
  • 70g (1 cup) fresh breadcrumbs
  • 1 1/2 tsp vegetable stock powder
  • 1 lemon, rind finely grated, plus cheeks to serve
  • 4 eggs, lightly whisked
  • Mixed salad leaves, to serve
  • Greek-style yoghurt, to serve

Instructions:
  • Combine shallot, florets, zucchini, leafy greens, and herbs in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and add quinoa, breadcrumbs, garlic, stock powder, lemon rind, and egg. Season with salt and pepper, then mix well to combine.
