recommended by meat eaters

Place the oat flakes, whole wheat semolina, and whole spelt flakes in a bowl. Crumble the cornflakes by hand and add them. Pour over the broth and let them swell for 10-15 minutes. Meanwhile, finely slice the leek into half rings, finely chop the onion, and coarsely grate the carrot. Crush the garlic clove and sauté it with the vegetables in a pan in hot sunflower oil for 10 minutes. Mix the vegetables and grains and let them cool until lukewarm. When the mixture is tender, add the parsley and mix with breadcrumbs (if desired) until a soft dough forms. Season with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and ground coriander, shape into patties, and fry them in olive oil in a pan for about 15 minutes, turning occasionally. Anything goes well as a side dish (potatoes, pasta, or rice). We served it with potato gratin. Tip: Non-vegans can also top with a slice of cheese if they like.
