If you have a sensitive stomach, you should treat yourself to millet from time to time: The fine grains do not burden the stomach and intestines and the body can digest them easily.

If you like, you can serve an aromatic herb dip with the tasty patties: Mix 8 ounces of low-fat Greek yogurt with a bunch of chopped herbs and a little salt and pepper.

Preparation steps

1.

Rinse millet in a sieve under hot water. Place in a pot and cook in twice the amount of boiling salted water for 15-20 minutes over medium heat. Then let millet cool for 10 minutes.

2.

Meanwhile, cook peas in boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes. Drain, drain and coarsely chop with a blender. Wash spinach, place dripping wet in a large saucepan and cook over medium heat until collapsed, then drain well in a colander, squeezing out some of the remaining liquid. Coarsely chop spinach.

3.

Peel garlic and chop finely. Heat 1 tablespoon oil, sauté garlic for 2 minutes, add spinach, sauté for 2 minutes and season with salt and pepper. Leave to cool.

4.

Stir potato starch with 4-5 tablespoons water until smooth. Mix millet with peas, spinach, pepper, cayenne pepper, turmeric powder, garam masala, smoothly stirred starch and flour to a malleable dough and season with salt.

5.

With wet hands, form 16 patties from the mixture and bake them one after the other: Heat 1 tsp oil in a frying pan. Add 4 patties and fry for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown over medium heat. Fry the remaining patties in the same way.
