Title: Cottage Cheese Patties
Post by: mcmich on January 10, 2013, 04:51:52 am

Cottage Cheese Patties

INGREDIENTS

1 large onion cut in quarters
500gms cottage cheese (I used low fat)
2 cups of boiled rice
1 egg
1 pkt leek and cheese soup
2 tbsp of plain wholemeal flour
70gms rolled oats
egg wash
multigrain bread crumbs

METHOD

*Chop onion on sp6 for 5 secs
*Add all the remaining ingredients to the  *: except egg wash and crumbs and combine  :-: sp4 for 10 - 12 secs (this will be a moist mix)
*Refrigerate for 1 hour.
*Form into patties - refrigerate again for 1/2 hour if necessary
*Dip in egg wash and coat in bread crumbs
*Refrigerate for 1 hour
*Heat a tbsp of oil and gently cook about 6 mins each side or until golden brown

Makes 16 man sized patties. For lunch boxes form into balls using a small scoop - makes heaps

Tip: You need to work quickly with the mix and refrigerate as necessary - it is a moist mix and a bit fiddly.

I have no idea where the recipe come from, I have been making it since before kids and know they loved them in their lunch box. My recipe is hand written.

These look great Mich ;D What do you serve them with? I imagine they might be nice with sweet chilli sauce :D

Usually just cold on their own. Chilli sauce would be nice with them - DH would like that.

Sounds yummy, and I'm starting to think about lunchbox ideas - especially savoury & filling things. Thanks!

I think baking them in the oven is a great idea Amy. Do you think these would work with ricotta, or would it be too sloppy?

Thanks Cookie :D Is ricotta sloppier than cottage cheese? I did find that they were very fragile to flip with the baking method, but I don't know how it compares to frying because I didn't fry any. Mich might have a better answer ;)

Depends amy.. Normally commercial ricotta ie in a tub are more liquid but other forms from the deli can be alot less liquid

I think a firm ricotta would work.
I couldn't find cheese and leek soup when I went looking for it. May have to use Frozzie's version of French onion soup.
I'm going to try them in the oven next time - excellent idea Amy.  :D

Thanks Mich ;D You know me, always looking for a healthier option! :D

I don't think I actually used the leek and cheese soup mix... I think I just added some parmesan to give a little bit a cheesy flavour ;)

Sounds like they're perfect for lunch boxes, thank you for sharing! Do you reckon I could sub leek & potato soup with 1 Tbsp of vege stock paste and perhaps a cup of grated parmesan?
Title: Re: Cottage Cheese Patties
Post by: Amy :-) on May 01, 2013, 12:58:10 pm
Dhitri, I think 1 cup of parmesan may be a bit much because it does have a very strong flavour... perhaps 1/2 cup?
Title: Re: Cottage Cheese Patties

Hi Amy, yes 1/2 cup sounds like it will be enough :)

The recipe is fairly forgiving, so I think as long as the quantities are the same, a substitute is fine  :)

Using veg stock concentrate instead of leek soup package and subs panko bread crumb for breadcrumbs. DD loves this a lot, perfect for vacation care lunch box.Thank you, Mich!
