Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked white or brown rice
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)
• 1 clove Garlic (minced)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, all-purpose flour, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the flour and seasonings.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until fully combined.

Step 3

Pour the egg and milk mixture into the rice mixture and stir until a thick batter forms.

Step 4

Fold in the chopped green onions, parsley, garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 5

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.

Step 6

Scoop about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet for each pancake, flattening it gently with a spatula to form an even thickness.

Step 7

Cook the pancakes for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

Step 9

Serve the savory rice pancakes warm with your choice of dipping sauce or a dollop of sour cream on the side.
