These patties are a terrific standby dish as I always have beef mince on hand in the freezer and I can normally rustle up the remaining ingredients with little fuss. For my children, I serve them with one or two other vegies on the side but as they contain quite a number of “hidden” vegetables, they are quite a nutritious meal as they are. If I am really organized I double (or even triple!) the recipe and freeze the uncooked patties for another day. Oh and you simply can’t eat these rissoles without your favorite tomato chutney/sauce – yum.
