Oatmeal Wheatgerm Patties

[Guest guest]

I have given this recipe to many people and they have thought it was great.

One even eats it for breakfast.

OATMEAL WHEATGERM PATTIES

 

 

1 and ½ cup uncooked 1 minute oatmeal

 

¼ cup dry lentils cooked in enough water to cover till soft

 

1 cup wheat germ

 

1 pkg. Dry yeast dissolved in ¼ c. warm water

 

4 tsp. soy sauce

 

1 cup onion chopped

 

2 eggs beaten*

 

4 Tablespoons chopped nuts, any kind

 

1-12oz. can evaporated milk

 

1 tsp. poultry seasoning

 

2 garlic cloves crushed

 

¼ tsp. red pepper flakes

 

1 tsp. salt

 

1 tsp. liquid smoke

 

 

 

Mix everything together in large bowl. Preheat in a nonstick frying pan or

electric fry pan that you pour a little oil in and rub it around with a paper

towel. Can let it set for 15 for some of the liquid to absorb in the oatmeal. I

used a 1/3 cup measure with a handle to scoop the mixture in, rounded a little

in the measure. Because the mixture is a little soft I bought 2 poached egg

rings and set them in the pan and put mixture in ring, flattened with the bottom

of the measure. Let set a few seconds, fill the other ring that you set in the

pan, remove the first ring and continue to cook till patties are well browned.

These are wonderful in a bun or serve with a sauce of your choice. The egg ring

has about a 3 and ½ in. diameter.

 

 

 

*You can leave out the eggs but remember without eggs don't cook in a sauce,

they will fall apart. I have not been happy with replacer's for eggs.
