Leftover cooked boiled rice? Recipe

[Guest guest]

The birds in our (English) garden don't like rice much.

Also ... it's quite easy to use up for humans!

 

I have a " recipe " which uses up *two* sets of leftovers: boiled rice

one day, boiled potatoes the next, potato-rice cakes the next!

 

Basically, mix roughly equal parts of boiled potatoes and boiled long-

grain rice (if not 50:50 then err to excess of rice) with finely

chopped onion (small amounts of other vegetables such as peas or

cooked peppers) and mixed herbs to your fancy (a little pepper, a

little bacon substitute, a little ... whatever *but* not to more than

10% of the whole). An egg or two helps mould the cakes but is not

essential. Mix the whole lot up by hand; take a handful and roll

gently in flour of your choice, flatten to about 2cms thickness.

Grill (moderate heat) for 10-20 mins - until cooked.

 

This is a very versatile (modify it as you like) " recipe " which is

quick (if messy) to make!

 

 

 

> when I had leftover rice or pasta I feed it to the birds. Very

important that the rice is cooked or it could kill the birds.

> I love when they eat leftover spaghetti, it hands from their beaks

and looks like worms. LOL! It gives them good carbs for the cold.
