How to Make African Rice Balls
- Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a medium saucepan.
- Add 1/2 cup of uncooked rice to the boiling water.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the rice is very soft and all the water has been absorbed.
- Remove from heat and let the rice cool slightly (about 2 minutes).
- Using a wooden spoon or a potato masher, gently mash the rice until it becomes sticky and holds its shape.
- Divide the rice into four equal portions.
- Using clean, slightly damp hands or two spoons, shape each portion into a smooth ball.
- Serve immediately alongside recipe #456093 or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for later use.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
