Notes

Add other vegetables like corn kernels, grated carrot, beetroot, broccoli, peas, cauliflower or zucchini.
In place of Cilantro/Coriander, you can also add spinach leaves.
To make it like your favourite Trader Joe's Black Bean and Quinoa Patties (for my readers in USA), add some chopped yellow bell peppers and add breadcrumbs.heese for cheesy quinoa patties for your kids.
You can also use Oats flour/breadcrumbs for binding inplace of Chickpea or gram flour.
