Tips and Notes
Variation with Herbs: Feel free to adjust the herbs to suit your tastes. Fresh basil, thyme, or dill can all be excellent additions. You can also use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder for a bolder flavor.
Cheese Options: If you prefer a dairy-free version, you can omit the cheese or substitute it with a plant-based alternative. Nutritional yeast can also be a great substitute for the cheesy flavor.
Baking Option: If you want a lighter version of these patties, you can bake them instead of frying. Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, drizzle them lightly with olive oil, and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden and crispy.
Make-Ahead: You can prepare the patty mixture ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 2-3 days before frying. Alternatively, you can form the patties, freeze them on a baking sheet, and transfer them to a freezer bag for up to 1 month. Fry the frozen patties directly from the freezer.
Dipping Sauce Suggestions: Pair these patties with a variety of dipping sauces, such as a tzatziki sauce, spicy mayo, or a lemony yogurt dip.
