Ingredients
- 500 grams Cooked rice porridge (unsweetened)
- 100 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cardamom
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 60 milliliters Milk
- 30 grams Unsalted butter (for frying)
- 0 optional Powdered sugar (for dusting)
- 0 optional Lingonberry jam (for serving)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice porridge, flour, eggs, granulated sugar, ground cardamom, salt, and milk. Mix well until a thick, lump-free batter forms.
Step 2
Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add a small portion of the butter.
Step 3
Once the butter has melted, drop spoonfuls (about 2 tablespoons per fritter) of the batter into the pan. Flatten each spoonful slightly with the back of a spoon to form a round shape.
Step 4
Cook the fritters for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Step 5
Place the cooked fritters onto a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess grease. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Step 6
Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar, alongside a dollop of lingonberry jam if desired.
