  1. Cook the quinoa in the water until the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Spread it on a plate and leave to cool completely.
  2. Meanwhile, soften the diced onion in the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat until translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the heat and leave to cool completely.
  3. Bring a pan of water to the boil and place a steamer basket over it. Steam the broccoli until tender, then chop it into small pieces. Leave to cool.
  4. In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients except the egg, mixing thoroughly. Add the egg and stir until you have a smooth, wet mixture that holds together when shaped.
  5. Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan. Shape the mixture into equal patties, using about a quarter of a cup of mixture for each.
  6. Fry each patty over a medium heat for 7-8 minutes per side, until a crust forms and the patty is cooked through. Keep an eye on them. Leave to cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
