Broccoli and Cauliflower Bites with Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
Ingredients
- about 1 lb broccoli and cauliflower florets and stems
- 1 small pack baby carrots
- 1 small baked and mashed sweet potato
- 1 cup cooked brown rice
- 1 cup rice flour plus more for coating
- 3 tablespoons tapioca starch
- 2 teaspoons salt
- handful of chopped cilantro
- oil for pan frying
- Thai sweet chili sauce with lime juice
Preparation
Bring a pot of water to boil, blanch broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots until fully cooked for a few minutes, then drain and finely chop using a food processor.
Place the chopped vegetables in a large bowl, add mashed sweet potato, cooked brown rice, salt, rice flour, and tapioca starch, and mix well; if too wet to form patties, add 2 more tablespoons of rice flour.
Form the mixture into small patties and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Coat both sides of each patty with additional rice flour.
In a heated pan with 2 tablespoons oil, cook patties until golden brown on each side.
Serve with Thai sweet chili sauce.
Tips
Peel the harder skin off broccoli stems before using.
