Time 35m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 slices sandwich bread (stale or toasted)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 granny smith apple, grated
1/2 bell pepper, chopped (I use red)
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh ginger
1 cup cooked rice
1 egg
3 tablespoons rolled oats (ground in food processor)
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Chop the bread very fine, or break into pieces and throw in a food processor, breaking it into crumbs.
  • Transfer to a large mixing bowl, and add the onions.
  • Squeeze the grated apples lightly to remove excess juice, then add to the bowl, along with the bell pepper, ginger, rice, egg, and half the ground oats.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Form mixture into 1 1/2-inch thick patties.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet, over medium heat. Coat the patties with the remaining ground oats and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned slightly.
  • Serve with hot sauce, cole slaw, or whatever else tickles your fancy.
