According to the cooking section of Saed News, rice cutlet is a quick and delicious dish that can be made using leftover rice.
Cooked rice – 1.5 cups
Potatoes – 2 medium
Minced meat (optional) – 300 grams
Eggs – 1-2
Dried aromatic herbs – 1 tbsp
Garlic – 2 cloves
Onion – 1
Salt, black pepper, and red pepper – to taste
Turmeric, paprika, and oil – as needed
Wash the potatoes and place them in a small pot with 2 cups of water. Boil them until fully cooked.
If you don’t have pre-cooked rice, peel the potatoes and boil them together with rice until the rice becomes soft and mushy. Once the potatoes are cooked, peel them.
Mash the boiled potatoes and rice in a bowl using a masher until well combined. Let the mixture cool completely.
Grate the onion and garlic, squeeze out the excess liquid, and add them to the bowl along with minced meat, eggs, dried herbs, paprika, salt, black pepper, red pepper, and turmeric.
Knead the mixture for 7 to 10 minutes until fully combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour to allow the flavors to blend.
After the resting time, heat oil in a frying pan. Wet your hands and take a small amount of the mixture (about the size of a tangerine).
Shape it into a round patty and slightly flatten it with your palm. Repeat for the remaining mixture and place the patties in the hot oil.
Once one side turns golden, flip the cutlets to cook the other side. Finally, place them on a paper towel to remove excess oil and serve with bread.
Enjoy your crispy and delicious rice cutlets! 🍽️
