I had some leftover rice so I made these fried rice chip tuiles. You can use them for garnish or eat them as they are (they're delicious on their own). I seasoned mine with some chopped nori, sesame seeds, salt and chili flakes.

I like to make rice bowls for lunch usually with just basic sushi rice made with some rice wine vinegar, salt and sugar. Sometimes however I don't finish it all and I need to find creative uses for it or I just end up throwing it away. To make these chips you just need to puree your leftover rice with some water in a blender until it forms a thick paste. Afterwards you need to dehydrate it. In a professional kitchen this can be done easily in a dehydrator but since I don't have one at home and most other people don't there is a solution. Just spread the rice paste onto a plate lined with plastic cling film and pop this into the microwave for 2 minutes or until it forms a pliable piece of paper almost.

Once this is done you can fry the chips quickly on each side before removing them from the oil and tossing them in the spice mix. Or just leave them plain, they are just as good!

  1. hay que secarlos mas , la cantidad de agua es 3 x 1 de arroz y licuarlo con nada de agua l uego secar hasta q esté rigido como plastico , de esa manera sufla mejor

  2. I wonder how well it would work to add some flavours to the paste before dehydrating? Stuff that won’t burn in the oil. I’ll have to try this, thanks for the tutorial.

  3. In Indonesia we’ve made it for over 500 years. We call it karak. Ussualy blend with garlic or shrimp paste for flavour before dehydrating.

  4. Just made them yesterday for a class at cooking school with basmati rice. Thanks as always for the tips! ALL of your tips and recipes work🎆🎊

  5. Is this working if i do this Rice mix and but oven tray. Wrap film Then but on oven(Steam oven) ? And then Deep-fry

  6. Just a thought… This is an awesome idea. Chef …could I use cooked sweet potatoe in blender and spread the same way? And make sweet potato chips. I’m diabetic. Dr wants me to limit rice. 😬 Which I love.

  7. Oooo this gives me an idea…thanks for the awesome content, super creative ideas and easy to follow instructions 👍

  8. My Head chef taught me another way of doing this that gives you more of a spider web design, omitting your steps after the blending of the rice, you mix the blend with a bit of Avocado or Sunflower oil and putting it inside a squeeze bottle, on a little frying pan, you add little bit of the liquid and move the liquid around in the pan (with the water leaving the rice, you get a nice crisp on the tuile! *note it will splash a bit lol) hope you try out the method :)

  9. It’s called kool vadagam in Tamil. My grandma makes this everyday😏

  10. Чипсы сначала нужно высушить, а потом только в раскалённое масло помещать.
