1 cup organic amaranth grains
2 tablespoon diced onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
1 egg
2 tablespoon gluten-free all-purpose flour

2. Transfer cooked amaranth to a bowl and let cool.
3. Once amaranth has cooled, add egg, flour, and chopped basil. Mix well.

5. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.
6. Serve with tomato sauce or salsa.
