I have also refined the rice patties with zucchini. The vegetables make them particularly juicy and tender. They combine perfectly with the rice and give the vegan fritters a unique flavor.

What type of rice for vegan fritters?

Round grain rice is best for the rice patties, as well as for the vegan lentil patties or the vegetarian pelmeni. It is sticky and ensures that the mixture binds well. This means the vegan rice fritters keep their shape.

How to serve vegan rice patties

The vegan rice fritters taste great both warm and cold, just like the white cabbage patties or the buckwheat patties. You can enjoy them in a variety of ways.

They are perfect as a main meal with a side dish or vegetable salad. Mashed potatoes, pasta and buckwheat go well with them.

With a dip, the rice patties are ideal for snacks in between meals or as finger food for a party, similar to the vegan fish sticks. You can take them with you on whole wheat bread or in a wholemeal bread roll.
