Tofu and Vegetable Patties

Submitted by English_Rose

"You could make these patties bite sized for a vegetarian canapé or simply one large one - like a frittata with a twist. You could serve the patties in a burger bun with ketchup also. From Good Food magazine June 2011."

These are awesome! Unfortunately, i had to use powdered ginger as i didn't have any fresh....<br/>and I added some finely diced green pepper & shredded red cabbage. I'll absolutely make these again.
