Lunch: Ham and Rice Croquettes
Ingredients
2 cups cooked white rice, cooled
3/4 cup finely chopped cooked ham (about 1/4 pound)
1/3 cup grated parmesan
2 large eggs, divided
1/2 cup plain dry bread crumbs
About 3 cups vegetable oil
Equipment: a deep-fat thermometer
Instructions
Stir together rice, ham, cheese, 1 egg, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Put remaining egg (lightly beaten) and bread crumbs in separate shallow bowls.
Heat 1 to 1 1/2 inches oil to 350 °F in a 10-inch skillet over high heat. Meanwhile, dampen your hands and form 1/4-cup amounts of rice mixture into 2 1/2-inch cakes. Lightly coat with egg, then with bread crumbs. Fry croquettes in 2 batches, turning once or twice, until golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes per batch.
