Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked brown rice
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 stalks scallions, finely chopped
- 1 unit large egg
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked brown rice, all-purpose flour, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped scallions.
Crack the egg into the mixture and add garlic powder, ground black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients come together into a sticky batter.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and form it into a rough patty using damp hands. Place the patty into the hot skillet. Repeat with the remaining mixture, cooking in batches if necessary.
Cook each fritter for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until golden brown and crisp.
Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet if cooking in batches, and repeat the frying process with the rest of the mixture.
Serve the fritters warm with a side of your favorite dipping sauce or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
