Simmer the millet in the vegetable broth for about 10 minutes, then let it steep while still hot. While the apples are cooling, peel and chop them. Bring to a boil with water, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla sugar, and simmer for about 10 minutes. Then chill the compote. Fluff the cooled millet with a fork. Stir in the onions and garlic and let it rest. Grate the carrot, add the flaxseed, eggs, and flour, and knead everything into a firm dough, adding a little water if necessary. Form the dough into patties. Fry in batches in a pan over medium heat until golden brown. Serve with the apple compote. Tip: The patties also make excellent patties for veggie burgers.
