Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked jasmine rice
- 0.5 cups Chickpea flour
- 2 teaspoons Curry powder
- 1 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.25 cups Chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 stalks Green onions, finely sliced
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.75 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil (for frying)
- 0.25 cups Tahini
- 3 tablespoons Water (for dressing)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice (for dressing)
- 1 teaspoons Maple syrup
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt (for dressing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked jasmine rice, chickpea flour, curry powder, ground cumin, paprika, chopped cilantro, green onions, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients well until they bind together. The mixture should feel slightly sticky. If it’s too dry, add a splash of water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Using your hands, form the mixture into small patties about 3 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick. You should get about 8-10 patties.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the tahini dressing by whisking together tahini, water, lemon juice, maple syrup, and salt in a small bowl. Adjust the consistency with more water if needed, and season to taste.
Once the patties are cooked, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Serve the curried rice patties warm, drizzled with tahini dressing and optionally garnished with extra chopped cilantro. Enjoy!
