Quinoa Fritters

1. 1

   In a medium sized saucepan combine the dry quinoa and water. On a medium-high heat bring it to a boil and simmer for approximately 10 minutes. It is done when the white germ separates from the seed. When it reaches this point cover with a lid and take off the heat. Set aside and leave it covered for 5-10 minutes to absorb any remaining liquid.

2. 2

   While quinoa is cooking combine the grated carrot, onions, cheeses, parsley and flour in a large bowl.

3. 3

   Add the cooked quinoa to the bowl and toss through. Season with salt and pepper. Check the seasoning at this point before the eggs are added.

4. 4

   Crack the eggs into the bowl and mix thoroughly.

5. 5

   Heat a little oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once oil is hot, using a metal spoon, drop a spoonful of the mixture onto the frying pan and flatten gently with the back of the spoon. You can probably fit 4 or 5 spoonfuls into the pan at a time. You will need to cook these in batches of 4 or 5 at one time.

6. 6

   Cook on a medium heat for 3-4 minutes until golden, then flip and cook the other side for 2-3 minutes. Remove cooked fritters from the pan onto a paper towel lined plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
