Spicy Rice Cakes

Being on a budget doesn't mean you can't create easy delicious meals. This side dish was less than $1.00 to make and would go great with a saucy fish or chicken or sautéed veggies. They are super quick and easy to make. 

2 cups cooked Jasmine Rice

1/8 Cup Tamari (Gluten Free Soy Sauce)

1 Clove Garlic, Minced

1.5 TBSP Sriracha

2 Green Onions, Chopped, green parts only

1/4-1/2 Cup Shredded Carrots (about half carrot shredded)

1 Egg

1/4 TSP Sesame Oil

1/4 TSP Korean Crushed Red Pepper

3 TBSP Grapeseed Oil

Rice Flour for sprinkling

Heat grapeseed oil over medium heat in a large skillet

Combine all ingredients and mix. Form into little patties and sprinkle with rice flour.

When oil is heated, place gently into oil and cook until golden brown. Sprinkle more rice flour and flip.

Drain on paper towels, drizzle with sriracha and serve hot. Enjoy xx

*You can test to see if oil is hot enough by sticking the bottom of a wooden spoon into your oil. If little bubbles start forming around the wood, your oil is hot enough to crisp items.
