Yield Makes 4 side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 scallions, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 celery rib, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
5 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups unsalted cooked rice at room temperature
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup fresh bread crumbs (from 2 slices firm white sandwich bread)

Steps:

  • Cook scallions, carrot, celery, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper in 2 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy nonstick skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until carrot is softened, about 8 minutes. Stir together rice, eggs, bread crumbs, and vegetable mixture in a bowl. Form into 8 (2 1/2- by 1/2-inch) patties, pressing mixture so cakes will hold together (mixture will be loose). Transfer to wax paper as formed. Cook 4 rice cakes in 2 tablespoons oil in skillet over moderately high heat, gently turning over once, until browned, about 7 minutes total. Transfer to a plate and keep warm, loosely covered with foil. Cook remaining 4 cakes in remaining tablespoon oil.

These rice cakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These rice cakes were a great way to use up leftover rice. I added some extra vegetables and they were delicious.

I followed the recipe but my rice cakes didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I might have overcooked them.

These rice cakes were amazing! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly. The flavor was spot-on and the texture was just right - crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I will definitely be making these again.
