Ingredients
To make this rice cake with tapioca, you will need the following ingredients:
- 2 cups (tea) of cooked rice;
- 1 cup (tea) mozzarella cheese;
- 3 tablespoons of tapioca gum;
- 2 tablespoons wheat flour;
- ½ grated carrot;
- 1 egg;
- Breadcrumbs for breading;
- Frying oil;
- Salt and black pepper to taste;
- Green smell to taste.
Preparation
The preparation of this cake is very simple and practical. To start, gather all the dough ingredients in a bowl and mix them with your hands. In this case, the wheat flour and the egg will be responsible for binding the ingredients, to the point of forming a homogeneous mass.
Now, separate small portions of the dough and start modeling in the shape of a cupcake. Then take each one of them and roll them in breadcrumbs to coat. As the dough is moist, the flour will stick easily. Finally, take the dumplings to the already hot oil to fry and remove them when they are golden.
Another option is to make them in the Air Fryer to get rid of excess oil. In this case, the process for making the snack will be the same, but you must place the dumplings in the preheated Air Fryer at medium power for approximately 15 minutes, or until they are cooked. However, do not forget to pass a drizzle of olive oil on the bottom of the fryer so that the dumplings do not stick. That way, you will have a tasty, practical and economical recipe.
