Savory Egg Patties with Green Onion (High-Protein, Gluten-Free)

These savory egg patties are the kind of recipe you make once and then keep in your back pocket

forever. Crispy on the outside, tender inside, and packed with protein — they come together from just a handful of simple ingredients. Rice flour keeps them gluten-free and gives a delicate crunch, while green onion adds fresh flavor in every bite. They work for breakfast, a light lunch, or a post-workout snack.

Ingredients

• 2 hard-boiled eggs
• 1 raw egg
• 2 tablespoons rice flour
• Green onion, chopped, to taste
• Salt, to taste
• Ghee (or butter), for frying

Instructions

1. Peel the boiled eggs and chop them finely together with the green onion.
2. Add the raw egg, rice flour, and salt. Mix well until you get a thick, uniform batter.
3. With damp hands, shape the mixture into small patties.
4. Heat a skillet over low heat with a small amount of ghee.
5. Fry the patties covered for 5–7 minutes per side, until deep golden brown.

Tips

Keep the heat low and the lid on — this cooks the patties through without burning the outside. Swap green onion for chives or dill for a different twist. Serve with sour cream or plain yogurt.
