Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
- Finely chop the mushrooms and celery. Set aside.
- In a food processor, pulse the walnuts until they are coarsely ground. Be careful not to over-process, as you want some texture in the patties.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, cottage cheese, egg, and soy sauce. Mix well.
- Add the spice mix, bread crumbs, ground walnuts, chopped mushrooms, and celery to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Take a handful of the mixture and shape it into a patty. Each patty should be roughly about 2-3 inches in diameter. Repeat until all the mixture is used, making approximately 8-10 patties.
- Heat half of the olive oil (1/4 cup) in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the patties to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until each side is golden brown and crispy.
- If necessary, add more olive oil as you cook the remaining patties.
- Transfer the browned patties to the prepared baking sheet.
- Spoon a bit of the pasta sauce over each patty and sprinkle with dried oregano.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the patties are firm and heated through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Enjoy your mushroom and walnut patties with your favorite sides or as a sandwich filling!
Tips:
- For a finer texture, pulse the oats in a food processor before mixing them with other ingredients.
- To enhance the flavor, toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until they become fragrant.
- If the mixture is too wet, add more bread crumbs until the desired consistency is achieved.
- Allow the patties to rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cooking to help them hold their shape better.
- Cook the patties on medium heat to ensure they become golden brown and cooked through without burning.
- Experiment with different spice mixes to tailor the flavor to your preference.
In conclusion, these Mushroom and Walnut Patties are not only a delightful and nutritious option but also incredibly versatile.
