Preparation
Step 1
Prepare all the ingredients and spices for the vegetable patties.
Step 2
Boil approximately equal amounts of vegetables in unsalted water: 2 potatoes, 1 medium beetroot and 1 medium carrot. Transfer them to a plate, let them cool and peel.
Step 3
Finely grate the boiled and peeled vegetables into a large bowl.
Step 4
Add half an onion, finely chopped and fried until golden.
Step 5
Season with salt to taste, then add 3 tablespoons semolina, ½ teaspoon dried garlic, ⅓ teaspoon Georgian-style herb and spice blend and ⅓ teaspoon ground coriander.
Step 6
Add ground black pepper to taste and mix everything into a uniform vegetable mixture that is thick and easy to shape. Leave for 20–30 minutes so the semolina can swell.
Step 7
Shape the mixture into medium-sized patties. This amount makes about 9–10 patties.
Step 8
Coat the shaped patties in 30 g of wheat flour.
Step 9
Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a frying pan. Add the patties and fry for 2–3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Step 10
Serve the vegetable patties hot on their own or as a side dish with fish, meat or chicken.
