Delightfully Crunchy Vegan and Gluten-Free Mixed Vegetable Croquettes Recipe
- Combining the quinoa flakes, rice flour, finely chopped zucchini, grated carrot, sautéed onion and minced garlic, a blend of curry powder, salt, black pepper, chili flakes, and a drizzle of olive oil, with the added freshness of chopped parsley and the creaminess of soy milk.
- Season the mixture as desired with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Adjust the burner’s flame to a robust high setting, and vigorously stir the concoction as you continue cooking, ensuring the mixture thickens significantly, becoming nearly impenetrable to mixing.
- Allow the dough to cool completely before handling.
- Arrange the breadcrumbs artfully across the expanse of the large platter. Gently take a small portion of the mixture between your palms and shape it into a smooth, rounded sphere through a brief manipulation of your hands.
- Once the croquettes are prepared, heat the oil in a deep pot or wok to the ideal frying temperature, then carefully add the croquettes in batches to prevent overcrowding, allowing them to golden brown and crispy before removing them from the oil with a slotted spoon.
- Carefully remove the items from the oil and position them on a sheet of kitchen paper to efficiently drain away any remaining excess oil.
- Savor warm goodness alongside your preferred accompaniment, whether that’s a tangy dip, crisp greens, or crusty loaf of bread.
