Greek Rice & Quinoa Cakes
Method
Preheat oven to 200°C fan forced. Put rice and water into a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low, boil gently, uncovered for 25 minutes or until rice is tender. Stand, covered for 5 minutes. Rinse under cold running water. Drain well.
Meanwhile, put the sweet potato on a baking tray. Toss with garlic, Greek seasoning and 1 tablespoon of oil. Season. Roast for 20 - 25 minutes until golden and tender. Cool.
Combine the rice, sweet potato, haloumi, feta, egg, flour, onions and dill in a large bowl. Season. Shape into 8 x 1/2 cup patties.
Pour enough oil in a frying pan so it is 1cm deep. Heat over medium heat until hot. Cook the patties, in batches, for 4 - 5 minutes on each side or until golden and warmed through. Serve with Greek salad and tzatziki.
These rice & quinoa cakes are delicious served warm or cold. They can also be sandwich between warm hamburger bub, topped with mixed salad leaves and dollop of beetroot chutney.
