Quinoa Red Lentil Puffer with Harissa Yogurt

Crispy fried vegan pancakes of quinoa and red lentils with delicious fresh harissa dip

Quinoa and red lentils go really well together and bomb with these pancakes. I love the pancakes or fritters (amercan) along with a refreshing harissa yogurt, which by the way is my new must have. These healthy fritters have a great texture, are quick to make, and are super easy to prepare. Admittedly, they are also quite delicious cold with a snack. Well, do you feel like it? Let’s get started.

The nice thing is that the red lentils and the quinoa have the same cooking time and we can cook them together in some vegetable broth until soft. While the two ingredients are simmering away, I prepare the rest of the ingredients for the dough. Grated carrots, gluten-free flour (or spelt flour), flaxseed eggs, olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, harissa paste. Once the quinoa-red lentil paste is cooked, mix all the ingredients with your hands to form a uniform mixture.

Now it depends on whether you want to bake the fritters right away, or still have some time. If it goes on right away, then preheat oven, flour hands and shape fritters. Then it’s off to the oven and the delicious fritters are baked for 15 minutes at 200 degrees. Otherwise, the mass can also be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator until further processing without any problems. After the short stay in the oven, I fry them briefly on both sides in the pan to get them nice and golden brown.

Vegan vegetable fritters simple and delicious

Quinoa and red lentils are an unbeatable combination and provide you with important nutrients. Quinoa is rich in high-quality vegetable protein, folic acid, magnesium, zinc and manganese. Red lentils are also an excellent source of protein and score with 26 grams of protein per 100g.


If you’re looking for a different treat from the skillet today, I have the following suggestions for you:

What must not be missing from the buffers in any case? A delicious dip, in this case a harissa yogurt. Ideally, I serve a delicious salad with it and the main course is ready. For dessert, I recommend a piece of chocolate soft serve or a brownie, always with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, of course.

The Quinoa Red Lentil Buffer with Harissa Yogurt are:

  • aromatic
  • Protein-rich
  • Spicy
  • filling
  • Easy to manufacture

Let’s get started with this delicious vegan pancake. I wish you a lot of fun in the recooking and look forward to a review at the bottom of this page. If you post a picture, use the hashtag #veganevibes.
