Steam or sauté the broccoli and cauliflower until very soft. Let cool slightly, then finely chop or lightly mash so there are no large chunks.
Finely chop cooked shrimp until it has a minced texture. Smaller pieces help the patties hold together and create a safer texture for babies.
If the vegetables seem watery, gently press them with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a bowl, combine chopped broccoli and cauliflower, minced shrimp, grated carrot, egg, flour, garlic powder, and parsley. Stir until a thick mixture forms.
Heat a thin layer of oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of mixture at a time and flatten slightly into small patties.
Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Allow the patties to cool before serving.
