Ger-ice Cakes

The rice cakes at Geronimo led me to develop my own!

Ingredients
Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
2 large eggs, beaten to blend
2 c jasmine rice
½ c toasted, sliced almonds
¼ c soy sauce
¼ c baby capers
Panko crumbs
Salt

1. Make the jasmine rice as the package directs. Toast the almonds on a pan, being careful not to burn them. Crush them into slightly smaller bits.
2. Heat 3 inches of oil in a saucepan.
3. Stir the eggs, rice, toasted almonds, soy sauce, and capers in a large bowl to combine.
4. Roll about 2 tablespoons of the mixture into a patty and then cover in panko crumbs. Repeat until all the batter is used.
5. In batches, carefully drop the patties into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about four minutes.
6. Drain and dust with a salt. Serve very hot.
