Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine grated beetroot, cooked quinoa, and chickpea flour.
Add the finely chopped red onion, minced garlic, and chopped coriander leaves into the bowl.
Mix in sesame seeds, cumin powder, salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil into the mixture and stir until well combined.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of olive oil for frying.
Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary.
Cook each patty for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp.
Transfer the cooked patties to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the patties in the preheated oven for 10 minutes to ensure they are cooked through.
Remove from the oven, let them cool slightly, and serve warm.
