Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 2 | cups cooked white rice |
| 1 | can tuna in vegetable oil |
| 1/2 | large egg |
| 1 | tablespoon soy sauce |
| 1 | tablespoon flour |
| 1/4 | cup frozen peas (thawed) |
| oil (for frying) |
Instructions
- Prepare the Peas: Begin by thawing the frozen peas to ensure they are ready to mix into your rice cake batter.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked white rice with the drained tuna, egg, soy sauce, thawed peas, and flour. Stir the mixture until all ingredients are well incorporated and a cohesive mixture forms.
- Shape the Patties: With clean hands, shape the rice mixture into six equal patties, ensuring they are compact and well-formed for frying.
- Cook the Patties: Heat a generous amount of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Carefully add the patties in batches, cooking each side for approximately five minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Alternative Method: For a quicker option, you can skip shaping individual patties and simply pour the entire mixture into the skillet, browning both sides until cooked through—this method yields equally delicious results.
Enjoy these Tuna Rice Cakes as a tasty lunch or snack, perfect for both kids and adults!
