3cupsleftover riceany type is ok, you may choose to season it or not.
1tbsplard or neutral oilfor pan-frying
2cupspeanut oil *for deep-fry, 350°F/175°C
Instructions
Cover your container with a plastic wrapper, then add the leftover rice. Press tightly, cover, and store in the fridge.
Now you can easily lift the rice brick out with the help of the plastic wrapper.
Then slice the rice brick into 1 cm-thick large pieces and cut into smaller ones around 3cm *3cm. You may feel the rice is sticky to your knife; the solution is to wet your knife first.
Pan-frying Method
In a non-stick pan, add around two tablespoons of vegetable cooking oil and pan-fry the rice cake until golden brown. Then, flip it over and fry the other side until it reaches the perfect color.
Deep-frying Method
Heat oil to around 350°F. You can test the oil temperature with a chopstick. Once you insert it, fine bubbles will form around it.The frying process takes 3-5 minutes until the surface becomes completely golden brown.
