I didn’t think the rice cakes were going to come out as well as they did, but they stuck together so nicely! I made mine cilantro rice cakes. I probably wouldn’t have even noticed this recipe in the book, so I’m glad I got the push to make it!

My rice cakes wouldn’t stick together at all so I decided to turn them into some veggie fried rice! Very tasty and easy meal! http://www.joanne-eatswellwithothers.com/2012/08/recipe-vegetable-fried-rice-food.html
Mine totally fell apart too haha. I ending up baking them and they came out okay. Still just a little something different than regular rice!

I was curious to see how everyone’s rice cakes stuck together so I am laughing as I read the comments! After adding the sesame oil my rice cakes would not bind together so I added some almond meal and it did the trick. The leftovers didn’t stay in cake form though, and got crumbled up to serve the veg on top of later in the day. Despite the challenges, I really enjoyed this meal and would make it again, just without adding the sesame oil until at the end as a flavor enhancer. I used black rice for visual appeal (plus it is sticky and so good for you!), ommitted the chicken, and added several different types of veggies that were in my fridge. Great, simple meal!

I made Vegetable Fried Rice for a number of strange reasons

Going to post this one tomorrow, my pictures turned out ugly with the hurricane shutters closed during this tropical storm! The rice cakes were super cool though, I have lots of ideas for future uses.
I made Artichoke Rice Cakes stuffed with Manchego Cheese. These are one of the best appetizers I have ever made. Thanks Jen for choosing this recipe!

I also skipped the rice cakes and just went with stir fry. I added fresh basil to make Basil Chicken Stir Fry.

After reading all these comments, I’m surprised our rice cakes held together! We really liked the concept of this recipe, but thought it could use a little more sauce to put those rice cakes to good use!

We happened to have leftover Chinese food from the weekend so these rice cakes went perfectly with it!
We overcooked and over-hydrated the rice to get it mushier and it held together perfectly as patties. We also added garlic, soy sauce, Sriracha, and sesame seeds for extra flavor.

ok just kidding ladies, I can’t bring myself to post mine. The pictures are just not doing it for me. Thanks for picking this recipe, it was great to try such a simple thing like rice in a different form.
