Nut and rice rissoles
These are lovely with salads of any sort, or with vegetables and gravy. Kids like making these as they can get their hands messy!
Ingredients
325g (12oz) cooked brown rice
175g (6oz) finely chopped mixed nuts (e.g. brazil, hazel and cashew)
1 tbsp vegetable margarine
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 tsp sage
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 egg
Salt and pepper for seasoning
50g (2 oz) wholewheat breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil for frying
Method
Fry the onion until soft and golden.
Mix rice and chopped nuts together.
Add all the other ingredients except the egg, breadcrumbs and oil, and mix well.
Beat the egg and add to the mixture.
Using your hands, shape the mixture into rissoles (patties). They can be flat, round or oblong shaped.
Coat with the breadcrumbs and fry very gently in the oil until they are golden brown on both sides.
Be careful when turning as they are quite crumbly.
Serve with tomato or spicy sauce and a salad.
