Start by rinsing 1 cup of quinoa thoroughly under cold water. Combine the quinoa and 2 cups of vegetable broth in a pot, bring it to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cover for about 15 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and grated carrot, sautéing for an additional 2 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa with the sautéed vegetables, diced bell pepper, and season with salt and pepper. Add 1 large egg and ½ cup of breadcrumbs. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
With clean hands, shape the mixture into patties approximately 2-3 inches in diameter.
Wipe the skillet clean and return it to medium heat. Add olive oil and place the patties carefully, cooking them for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels. Serve them warm or enjoy in a salad or with a dipping sauce.
