Rice croquettes are easy and fast to make, even though the name might sound complicated, especially if you are new to cooking.

All you have to do is mix all the ingredients, make small patties, and fry them.

In my recipe, I used cooked long-grain rice with delicious Grana Padano Italian cheese.

To add aroma, I used garlic, basil, salt, and pepper.

Then, to connect all the ingredients together, you can use beaten eggs, and in order to adjust the texture of the mixture, just add the flour.

The mixture should be thick enough to hold the rice together. You should be able to shape the patties easily.

This dish can be a great side dish, a snack, an appetizer, or a whole meal if you eat them on their own.

Mix all the ingredients

First, you should mix all the ingredients very well. Take a medium bowl, add all the ingredients, and mix together. Rice should stick together nicely. If the mixture is too wet, add more flour.

Fry the croquettes

1. Firstly, pour oil into a non-stick frying pan and let it warm enough to begin the frying
2. Secondly, while the oil is warming up, form patties from the rice mixture into a round shape
3. Make sure the oil is hot and gently place the croquettes into the oil. Do not touch them until they are nicely browned. Then flip them on the other side until the other side is nicely browned, too
4. Lastly, take them out of the oil and place them on the paper towels on the plate, so the towels can absorb the excess oil

Serve the dish and enjoy!
