Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 carrot, shredded
  • 1 zucchini, shredded
  • 1 (10 ounce) package silken tofu
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1 celery, finely chopped
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons red Thai curry paste
  • 1/3 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

  1. Press carrot and zucchini between paper towels to remove excess moisture. In a medium bowl combine carrots, zucchini, tofu, onion, celery, egg, bread crumbs and curry paste.
  2. Chop 2/3 of the basil and add it to the tofu mixture. Mix well and form into 4 patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook patties for 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Serve with remaining basil leaves.
