Barley, Rice and Millet Patties

Delicious, simple, economical, nutritious, and truly vegan at their best! These go well on the side of anything you might like from potatoes to rice, and they make a really tasty addition to any sandwich!


1 cup brown rice, cooked
3/4 cup millet, cooked as per package instructions
3/4 cup barley, cooked as per package instructions
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 tomato, chopped
1 sweet green pepper, seeded and chopped
1 onion, peeled and chopped
1 tsp. garlic powder or 2 small cloves garlic, peeled and mashed
1 tsp. coriander, powder
1/4 cup walnuts or almonds
Salt to taste
3 Tbsp. sweet paprika powder

In a blender, process the tomato, onion, pepper, and walnuts with 1/2 cup water, till smooth. Add the rice, the millet and the barley and process again till you have a smooth paste, that is not mushy, otherwise your patties will not turn out with that slight crunchiness that is so pleasant. Scrape unto a bowl.
Heat up a skillet that has been barely "painted' with olive oil, and you drop large spoonfuls of the mixture into the skillet and press down.
Cook for about 10 to 12 minutes and then you flip. If not totally golden brown and crunchy, turn around again and cook until you have completed about 20 minutes. Watch them so that they will not get too brown!

Yield: 10 large, more if you make them small or medium sized
