Preparation Steps
1
In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, beaten eggs, grated cheese, finely chopped parsley, crushed garlic, salt, and pepper.
2
Gradually add the breadcrumbs until the mixture is easy to shape. If it's too soft, add a little more breadcrumbs.
3
With damp hands, form small patties from the mixture, ensuring they are all the same size.
4
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the rice patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
5
Place the cooked patties on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
6
Serve warm on their own, with dipping sauce, or a side salad.
