Why simply reheat leftover risotto when you can make these? Frying risotto patties in a little oil gives them a slightly crispy outside that contrasts well with the still soft risotto. Originally served as part of Chicken and Risotto Cakes.

Tools & Appliances

  • Non-stick Pan

Ingredients

  • 1½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • leftover risotto
  • salt

Instructions

We mold the leftover risotto using a biscuit cutter into small patties - roughly an inch in thickness and 2 inches in diameter.

We heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. We saute the patties for a few minutes on each side - until they are brown and crispy on each side and heated through. We serve them up hot sprinkled with salt!
