Buckwheat & Rosemary Patties

Ok people, don't read the title; don't read the ingredients; listen to my spiel first. This is one of those Facebook recipes that you see floating around and always think I'm gonna try that someday and never do. Well I've done it for you! I must say, that if it wasn't for the redeeming rosemary flavour, I might have scrapped these but as it is, I think it's an acquired taste that might take a bit of getting used to. But, my brother seemed to think they were pretty good. Ignore the fact that it has buckwheat in it - you can't taste it in the end and really, these are quite healthy!
