Creating the best recipe for quinoa presented a serious challenge. Quinoa is so healthy and good for you, and you know you should like it, but perhaps you’ve tried enough variations of quinoa to assume that it just doesn’t do it for you. Not anymore. I was very demanding in my quest for the best quinoa recipe, and my efforts have paid off. This recipe will change how you feel about quinoa—guaranteed.

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups cooked quinoa (prepared according to package directions)


4 eggs


1 cup flavored cornflake crumbs


1 1/4 tsp. kosher salt or sea salt


4 cloves garlic, minced


1 cup scallions or chives, thinly sliced


Fresh black pepper


Oil, for frying


 


AIOLI


1/2 cup mayonnaise


2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice


5 cloves garlic, minced


1 Tbsp. water


1/2 tsp. paprika

Directions

1. To prepare the aioli: In a small bowl, combine the aioli ingredients until mixed.


 


2. To prepare the patties: In a medium bowl, combine the quinoa, eggs, cornflake crumbs, salt, garlic, scallions or chives, and black pepper.


 


3. In a skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Form the quinoa mixture into patties and fry in the oil until golden and crispy, about 5 minutes per side. Serve warm or at room temperature with the aioli spooned on top.
