Broiled. Not Fried! And then serve them up with some spicy herb dijon sour cream of course. Of course.

For the Herb Dijon Sour Cream

  • Grease a large baking tray with spray oil.
  • Form the rice mixture into patties by scooping a palm-full into your hand and shaping them into patties pressing them gently so they stay together. Then place them onto the baking tray.
  • Spray or brush some oil (I prefer olive oil) on top of the patties and place them into the oven for 15 minutes.
  • Set oven to broil and broil for 7-10 minutes, checking periodically that they don't burn.
  • Flip them over carefully, and let broil another 2 minutes.
  • Let sit for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with the herb Dijon Sour Cream
