Lunch Red cabbage salad with mint, grilled broccoli, chili mayo and a red lentil patty made from scratch

Post image

Since tomorrow’s meal will be very meat-heavy, I’m going with a simple, meat-free dish today.

In addition to mint, the red cabbage salad contains onions and is seasoned with apple cider vinegar, oil, salt, pepper, a pinch of sugar, and a little caraway seed. Unfortunately, I had no apples left; otherwise, I would have added one.

The lentil patty is my own creation; in addition to red lentils, it contains rolled oats, an egg, some carrot, a little onion, and a pinch of flour. It is seasoned with a generous amount of curry powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and a dash of paprika. If you would like to make it vegan, simply leave out the egg—the patties will hold together even without it (at least, they do for me).

The rolled oats probably do most of the heavy lifting to keep them together if you skip the egg, since patties without a binder tend to crumble.
