Crispy Free-Form Rice Cakes
Rice is a must. Besides that you need grains like millet, quinoa, barley, oats and farro – anything will work. To make four servings, you will require about two cups of cooked grains.
Carrots, beets, zucchini, and sweet potato – anything will work just fine. But make sure that you take half the amount of veggies as you have of cooked grains.
Get cheese – blue cheese, cheddar, or feta – to add flavor, richness, and protein to your rice cakes. Consider the amount of veggies you have used and use the same amount of cheese.
Add a handful of fresh herbs to it as well - anything from chili powder to cumin will do.
Beat a couple of eggs and add them to the bowl along with rolled oats.
Mix the rice, veggies, eggs, cheese, oats and all other ingredients with a spoon until the mixture can hold together.
Squish the mixture to form patties and then place them on a tray. Refrigerate them for at least half an hour – the longer the better.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over med-high heat and then add chilled patties to it. Cook and keep flipping until golden brown.
Serve them hot!
Garlic Rice Crackers
Ingredients
1 cups of sushi rice, cooked
2 tbsp. of rice vinegar
Seat salt and garlic powder, to taste
Instructions
Start by cooking sushi rice – you can follow the instructions on the package. Leave it for some time to cool.
Add a little salt, garlic powder, and rice vinegar to the cooled rice.
Use your hands to make small balls of the rice and place them in a baking tray. Cover them in parchment and then add another layer and press it with another baking sheet to make flat crackers. Just ensure they are less than 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
Bake them at 360°F for up to half an hour. Do not let them cook for too long or they will become very crunchy. You may get better results by cooking them between 20 and 25 minutes.
Refrigerate them in a sealed bag if you do not want to eat them the same day.
