Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups parboiled rice
- 5.3 oz cooked ham
- 3 eggs
- 7 oz fiordilatte cheese
- 5.3 oz zucchini
Preparation
I used parboiled rice, but carnaroli is perfect.
Boil the rice, then drain it well and place it in a bowl.
Add the eggs, mix, add the diced cooked ham and the fiordilatte cheese.
Grate the zucchini with a large hole grater, add them to the rice and mix well.
Put the oil in a pan and pour in the rice, level it well, and cook for about 10 minutes.
Flip the cake with the help of a plate and cook for another 10 minutes, both sides should be golden.
Bon appétit
