Indian Sticky Brown Rice Balls

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Serrano peppers (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup brown rice flour
  • 1/4 cup fresh or frozen green peas
  • 1 stalk scallion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro (chopped)

Optional

  • red pepper flakes

Directions

1. In medium saucepot, add 2 1/2 cups of water, lemon juice, ginger, pepper, cumin, baking soda, and salt. Bring to a boil
2. Reduce the heat to medium low. Add the flour a little at a time, while stirring constantly with a whisk to avoid any clumps. Keep stirring until the mixture thickens into a dryish batter and will start to release from the sides of the pan, about 10 minutes.
3. Stir in the green peas and mix well. Cover and continue to cook on low heat for 5 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and with the help of an ice cream scoot, place dollops of the sticky dough on a serving plate. Sprinkle with pepper flakes (if using) and garnish with scallions and cilantro. Serve warm.
