How can leftover rice and veggies be used to win your kids’ hearts? It might sound like a riddle to you, but it is possible as you will see from this recipe. Cooked rice and colourful vegetables are used to make a mildly spiced dough that is shaped into balls and deep-fried. This is a wonderful way to include veggies into your kids’ diet, and an intelligent alternative to store-bought fries, chips and cheese balls. The Crispy Rice Balls are really so crunchy outside and soft inside that your kids will love it!

brilliant idea to use left overs...i make crispy rice balls to utilise the left-over rice. i do not like onions so i replaced it with grated cabbage. because of rice flour these rice balls really turn out crispy. first time when i made these balls they turned very oily may be because of soft batter (i did not measure the amount of water) so be very careful while adding water, add slowly as required and as mentioned.
