Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked jasmine rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons green onions, chopped
  • 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and keeps the grains from becoming gummy.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for another 5 minutes.

Step 4

Fluff the rice with a fork and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Allow it to cool slightly.

Step 5

Add the chopped chives, green onions, flour, beaten egg, and black pepper to the rice. Mix everything thoroughly to form a cohesive dough-like mixture.

Step 6

Using your hands, shape the mixture into small patties, about 2 inches in diameter each.

Step 7

Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 8

Add the rice cakes to the skillet in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Remove the cooked rice cakes and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 10

Serve the chive and onion rice cakes warm as a snack or side dish.
