RICE CAKES



Rice Cakes image

Crispy rice has a revered place in many cultures. These rice cakes, which work well as a side dish to a piece of grilled meat or fish, offer the delicious crunch of Korean nurunji or Middle eastern hkaka, with some of the herbed cheesy goodness of Italian arancini. The basic recipe can be used to accommodate vegetables other than zucchini and herbs other than mint, or can be made without either for a more simple backdrop for a fried egg or a simple snack for a child.

Categories     side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 cakes

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups leftover white rice, preferably long-grain or Carolina Gold
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup finely chopped zucchini
3 tablespoons chopped mint
1/3 cup green onion, chopped
1 cup sharp white Cheddar, grated on the large hole of a box grater
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, gently mix everything except the butter. Over medium-high heat, heat the butter in a large frying pan until it is foaming. (A nonstick pan is good for this purpose but cast iron can work well, too.)
  • Working in batches if necessary, and adding more butter as needed, use a large spoon or measuring cup to place a scoop of the rice mixture in the pan. Press down with the back of a spatula to form a patty. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, or until golden and crisp on the bottom. Gently flip patty and cook another 3 minutes or until golden. Keep warm on a paper-towel-covered plate or pan in a warm oven.

ZUCCHINI AND RICE PATTIES



Zucchini and Rice Patties image

These are very good and easy to throw together, just make sure the pan is heated quite hot before adding as if it is too cool, it makes it harder to handle them and when it comes to flipping they will tend to want to break up. I served these with a corn relish but feel free to have them on their on. I have included the recipe for the relish if you wish to make it.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 40m

Yield 14 Patties

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup uncooked brown rice, should make 11/2 cups cooked
2 medium zucchini, coarsely grated
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped
2 -3 eggs, lightly beaten (I say 2-3 depending on the weight of eggs.)
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs, flakes (Japanese breadcrumbs, you may have to adjust amount if using regular as they are of different textur)
130 g creamed corn
1/4 cup olive oil
250 g sweet corn relish
1 1/4 cups sour cream
2 tablespoons chives, chopped finely
3 drops Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • Combine rice, zucchini, onion, parsley, egg, panko flakes and corn in a large bowl, stir with a wooden spoon to mix well.
  • Shape into patties (I usually get about 14 patties from this.).
  • Heat oil in a large frying pan, once quite hot, but not smoking, add patties in batches and cook until browned on both sides and heated through. Drain on absorbent paper. I served mine with a dollop of corn relish and cream. Recipe follows.
  • To Serve: Place salad some salad greens on a plate, arrange patties on this and top with relish if desired.
  • Corn Relish and Cream.
  • I think this relish is quite delicious and goes great with the patties, I can't get corn relish where I am so I make my own. I am not sure how using a jar of store bought will adjust the taste, (as this is what I have listed for the recipe.) but I am sure it will still taste great.
  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl. That's it easy peasy, This makes about 2 cups.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet or griddle to cook the patties. This will prevent them from overcrowding and sticking together.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or griddle, or grease it lightly with cooking spray or oil. This will also help prevent the patties from sticking.
  • Cook the patties over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
  • Flip the patties once during cooking. This will ensure that they cook evenly on both sides.
  • Serve the patties hot. They can be served on their own or with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Zucchini and rice patties are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
