Rice Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Mix rice, egg, basil, milk, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pour rice mixture into the skillet in 2 equal portions. Cook until browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until second side is browned, about 2 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cook the rice until the 'al dente' stage as it will finish cooking in the oven. Allow to cool. Heat up 2 tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan. Add the pancetta, salami, and onions. Cook until golden and crispy.
• Cook the peas in a pot of salted water for approximately 2 minutes, or until soft. Add to the pan mixture and toss the ingredients together. Transfer the rice to a large bowl. Add an egg, Pecorino cheese, grated Parmigiano, diced Parmigiano, scamorza, salt, pepper, and the pancetta mixture with all its juices to the rice and thoroughly mix.
• Grease a baking dish with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle half the bread crumbs to the base of the pan. Spread the mixture onto the baking pan, packing the mixture so it serves as a solid bed. Sprinkle the remaining bread crumbs on top. Bake for 20 minutes or until the rice cake is golden.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the rice and salt into the boiling water.
• Cover and cook slowly until the water is absorbed, 7-10 minutes.
• Add the milk, stir, cover, and cook 10-12 minutes more, or until the rice is tender.
• Stir in 1 egg and 2 tablespoons of the butter.
• Spread the mixture on a shallow plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate.
• Beat the remaining egg in a shallow dish and put the crumbs on a piece of wax paper.
• Shape the well-chilled rice mixture into 6 conical or patty shapes, pressing firmly together.
• Carefully dip each cake into the egg and then cover with crumbs.
• Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a skillet with the oil.
• When hot, fry the cakes until golden brown; don't cook them too quickly or the insides will remain cold.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 170C/fan 150C
• Grease and line a loaf tin with baking paper.
• Cream butter and sugar together until pale and creamy. Beat in the eggs, then fold in all the dry ingredients followed by the milk.
• Place into the loaf tin and bake in the centre of the oven for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
• Leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes then carefully tip out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
