Yellow Rice Cakes
Yellow Rice Cakes are pan-fried patties made with cooked yellow rice mixed with eggs, grated mozzarella cheese, and seasoning. When sautéed until golden brown on both sides, they develop a crisp exterior with a tender, cheesy interior. These rice cakes can serve as a tasty snack, side dish, or a way to use leftover rice with added texture and flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 egg large
- 1 package yellow rice mix cooked and cooled
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese grated
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- olive oil
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the rice, cheese, and salt and stir to combine well.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large sauté pan. Carefully place 1/3 cup of the rice mixture into the hot oil and use a spatula to flatten into a patty.
- Saute until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
