Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled cooked rice, beaten egg, rice flour, scallion greens, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture holds together when pressed — it should be sticky enough to form a patty without crumbling. If it feels too loose, add rice flour 1 tsp at a time.

Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and press each firmly into a round patty about 3 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick. Place on a plate or baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes, until the patties are firm and hold their shape.
