RE: Sprout Patties - Melody

[Guest guest]

Wow, do you have an actual recipe for your sprout patties?? And do you

think they could be broiled instead of fried (although I'd be happy with

fried too and would probably do them in a bit of olive oil! What about

spices?

Happy New Year to you and everyone on the group, btw. Boy, did Christmas

come and go quickly or what this year!??

Hi EW

And Happy New Year to you and all my fellow sprouters.

I have 9 trays of sprouts going.

And last night for a New Years Eve bash around the corner at a friend's

house, they had asked me to make my sprout patties.

I said " no problem " , I took bean sprouts, onions and eggs and bread crumbs.

Made batches and fried them and drained them well. I then (on the side) put

a bowl of sour cream.

Alan started eating this before we left the house and I said " Stop, we are

bringing these over there "

Hi there.

Let me go to my youtube videos and find my sprout patties video.

I'll then post it here. They were DIVINE!!!!

Especially with sour cream. You can also top them with a bit of applesauce or

whatever strikes your fancy. But they should really be served straight from the

skillet. Oh the crunch. I doubt that they can be broiled. It's the texture

thing going on.

I'll come back and post the video on this thread.

Thea:

Can't find the video. But I'll give the recipe in this posting. When I next make

a batch, I'll make another video. Here is how I make my sprout patties.

I take some bean sprouts (maybe 2 cups) I snip them in the bowl so they are cut

up bean sprouts.

Slice an onion and add to bean sprouts.

One egg

1/4 cup breadcrumbs

Dash of garlic powder (or fresh garlic)

Take your hands and mush this up.

Heat oil in skillet till it sizzles.

Take your hands and pick up a little bunch of the mixture and carefully plop

into the oil. I do about 6 at one time. It depends on the size of the frying

pan.

Let it get good and brown on one side. That holds it together. if you try and

turn it before it's ready it will fall apart. This takes some time so be

prepared to be in front of the oven for about 20 minutes because you want the

patty to be all held together.

When you take the spatula and turn it over and it's all one piece, you know it's

half done. Flip over and keep flipping until you know they are done.

Before I do this, I take a big aluminum pan filled with paper towels, and when

I'm done frying, I transfer them to the paper towels.

When they are all drained, I put in dish and serve with sour cream (or

whatever).

Make a lot because these things don't last. Everyone gobbles them up.

And of course you can make these with the other sprouts but I wouldn't do that.

A waste of good sprouts. Bean sprouts are cheap and they are crunchy when

cooked.

Let me know how yours turn out.

P.S. Happy New Year lol

Thanks, Melody. One question (which will probably sound dumb, but oh well :

- ) - you referenced bean sprouts as the type of spouts you use in this

recipe. The only beans I ever sprout are adzuki beans - are these the ones

you use? Since it appears you need some heavy volume to keep it together

and all, I'm assuming lentil sprouts won't work, but I'm somewhat tempted to

try!!

Thanks again!

LOL LOL LOL

MUNG BEANS.

Here in Brooklyn, they are called BEAN SPROUTS. Been calling them bean sprouts

ever since I can remember. Same things as you find in big sacks when you go into

an asian market. Or, you can buy them(as mung beans) already in the packages,

OR, you can go online to the sprout websites and buy organic mung beans. THEN

SPROUT THEM.

So, no to adzuki beans, and YES to mung beans.

But I would imagine you can throw anything you want into this mix. So try it.

lol
