2. **Form the patties:**
– Add the chopped cilantro, bread crumbs, and flour to the vegetable mixture. Mix well until everything is well incorporated.
– Take a small portion of the mixture and shape it into a patty. Repeat with the remaining mixture to form more patties.
3. **Coat the patties:**
– Spread some bread crumbs on a plate. Lightly press each patty into the bread crumbs to coat both sides.
4. **Fry the patties:**
– Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the patties in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the skillet.
– Fry the patties until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
5. **Serve:**
