This recipe is a great way to use up leftover quinoa. To make it from scratch, combine 1½ cups rinsed quinoa with 3 cups water in a pot with a lid. Bring to a boil uncovered. Reduce heat to medium low and cover. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed. Turn off the heat. Leave the quinoa to steam covered for 10 minutes. Remove the lid and let it cool before making the patties.
These patties will keep up to 3 days in the fridge, so they can be made ahead of time. After cooking, cool them on a wire rack, then refrigerate or freeze them. If frozen, defrost them for 3-4 hours in the refrigerator, or run cold water over them until they are soft. When ready to eat them, reheat in a lightly oiled skillet.
