“I present to you one of my most innovatively impromptu fritter fabrications ever!… (🥁 drumroll):
“Wakanda Forever” Black Rice Fritters! …🙌🏾🙌🏾
Extended family group shot at a movie theater in Indiana after seeing “Wakanda Forever” on Black Friday ✊🏾❤️ 🖤💚 👊🏾😆…
YES b/c they’re black and full of flavor… AND b/c I whipped them up right after we got back from seeing the movie! [the day after Thanksgiving , aka BLACK FRIDAY in Nov of 2022]
Made from lefter over black rice (a hybrid of long grain black Indica and Venus grains) that i'd simmered up as a side dish the day before as a T Day side). To make the fritters on the fly I folded in diced green pepper 🫑 & onion 🧅 , egg 🥚 , rice flour 🌾 , salt 🧂 pepper and other seasonings 🧄 🌶️ to taste. Then spooned out dollops into a cast-iron skillet with plenty of hot peanut oil to fry ‘em up for a few min on each side … [BECOME A PATREON SUPPORTER TO GET THE RECIPE]
Regardless of whatever they look like to you, let me tell you, these fritters were supremely scrumptious! …Crispy and crunchy around the edges, softer and semi chewy towards the middle … The perfect accompaniments dipped into a deliciously saucy 🍅 slammin’ (and rice-less!) jambalaya dish my ‘Play Cousin Big Sister ‘ Lori made the day prior …😋 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Special shout-out to ‘Play Cuz Baby Bro Nephew’ Jamil for his excellent sous cheffing + videography skillz !…
