Air Fryer Brown Rice Fritters
This was one of my favourite snacks to have after school. Yogurt and leftover rice were a common sight in refrigerators. With the aid of an air fryer, I have finally managed to create an oil-free, yogurt-free version. This recipe is well worth the time investment if you use a counter top convection/air fryer instead of a basket air fryer like the one I have, which requires batch cooking.
Ingredients:
- 4 cups of brown rice, cooked
- 1 cup onion, diced to a quarter-inch size
- Half a cup of unflavored, unsweetened plant-based milk
- Half a cup of chickpea flour
- One-fourth cup almond flour
- two tsp lemon juice
- One tsp baking soda
- One tsp of powdered turmeric
- One teaspoon of cumin powder
- One tsp finely ground coriander
- One-fourth teaspoon of cayenne
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- Half a teaspoon of sea salt, if desired
Directions:
- Set the air fryer’s temperature to 370 for ten minutes.
- Cut 12 little, roughly 2 by 4 inch pieces of parchment paper if you’re using an air fryer with a basket. If you own a tabletop air fryer or convection oven, prepare a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
- In a mixing basin, mix together all the ingredients. Stir thoroughly to make a somewhat dry batter.
- Transfer 1 1/2 tablespoons of the batter onto the baking sheet or parchment paper that has been prepared. Put the fritters in the air fryer and cook at 370 degrees for 15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly browned and crispy.
