Follow The Directions

01

Step

Combine rice and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water is absorbed. (20-25 minutes)

03

Step

Remove from heat and let rice cool slightly. (10 minutes)

04

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. (1 minute)

05

Step

Stir in the cooled rice, salt, pepper, chives, and onion flakes until well combined. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Melt 1 teaspoon of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Using a 1/2 cup measure, spoon portions of the rice mixture into the hot skillet, gently shaping them into pancakes. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Cook until golden brown and crispy on the bottom, about 3-4 minutes per side. Flip carefully and cook the other side until golden brown. (6-8 minutes)

09

Step

Repeat with remaining butter and rice mixture.

For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or a dash of hot sauce to the rice mixture.
These pancakes are delicious served with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.
Cooked brown rice can be substituted for white rice. Adjust cooking time as needed according to package instructions.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices such as dill, parsley, or paprika.

    My kids loved these! Such a clever way to use up leftover rice.

  • Otho Farrell

    These were great! I added a little shredded cheddar cheese to the batter.

  • Donna Bogisich

    I used brown rice and they turned out perfectly. A bit nuttier in flavor.

  • Ethyl Deckow

    Doubled the recipe for a larger batch and it worked perfectly.

  • Orland Will

    A dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt on top is a nice touch.

  • Geraldine Runolfsdottir

    Instead of chives, I used some leftover cooked bacon, chopped finely. Delicious!

  • Josephine Hauck

    I found that letting the rice cool completely before mixing the batter helped the pancakes hold their shape better.

  • Scotty Emard

    These are also good with a fried egg on top for breakfast.
