Rice flour cakes without eggs in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to fry rice flour cakes without eggs in a frying pan? First, prepare the necessary ingredients from the list. You can replace rice flour with any gluten-free flour: oatmeal, corn flour, etc. You can also make tortillas from regular wheat flour. But keep in mind that you may need more or less flour of other types.

2. STEP 2

   

   Sift the rice flour into a bowl. Add salt and stir.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour in 2 tbsp. l. vegetable oil and stir. There is no need to try to make sure that the oil saturates all the flour, there won’t be enough of it anyway. During the kneading process (step 5), the oil will disperse throughout the dough.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour boiling water into the dough and quickly stir with a spoon. You will get quite large lumps.

5. STEP 5

   

   When the mixture has cooled slightly, knead it with your hands into a soft, elastic, non-sticky dough, adding a little more rice flour if necessary. The consistency of the dough should resemble soft plasticine. It should not crumble in your hands. If the dough crumbles and does not form into a single ball, add a little more hot water.

6. STEP 6

   

   Gather the dough into a ball and place in a plastic bag or wrap in cling film. Leave for 20 minutes at room temperature.

7. STEP 7

   

   Roll out the dough on a table sprinkled with rice flour into a rectangular layer approximately 3 mm thick. Brush the surface of the dough with 1 tbsp. l. vegetable oil.

8. STEP 8

   

   Roll the dough into a tight log. Cut the roll into 6 equal pieces.

9. STEP 9

   

   Roll out each piece of dough on a surface greased with vegetable oil into a round cake with a diameter of 16-20 cm. You can roll out the cakes thinly or make them thicker.

10. STEP 10

    

    Heat the pan over medium heat. If you wish, you can grease the pan with vegetable oil. But since we rolled out the dough on a greased surface, you don’t have to grease the pan additionally. Place the tortilla and fry for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and charred. The exact frying time depends on your pan and heat level. While frying one tortilla, roll out the next one.

11. STEP 11

    

    Place the finished PP rice cakes on a plate and serve. Bon appetit!

My family likes to substitute bread with different flatbreads. Today I decided that I would cook eggless rice flour cakes in a frying pan. I have never used rice flour to knead dough, this was my first such experience. And of course I compared it with dough made from wheat flour. The dough turned out to be not sticky to your hands at all, but not soft and not pliable, it was about to crumble. After rolling, the edges of the cakes did not turn out smooth; they seemed to crumble. But despite these differences, I still fried the cakes. I started frying in oil, but the first flatbread absorbed all the oil and I decided to fry the next ones in a dry frying pan. I liked it even better that way. The flatbreads themselves turned out crispy and had a neutral taste. They ate them quickly. This was an interesting experiment, thanks for the recipe!

Working recipe, thanks! Unless you need more water - mine turned out a little dry and broke. Well, the dough absorbs a lot of oil when frying, the flatbreads turned out a little greasy (even though I laid them out on a paper towel to absorb the oil). The taste is unpretentious - well, the ingredients are very basic.

Thanks for the wonderful recipe! For those who have an oven with a grill, you can simplify the process: roll out the resulting roll of dough, greased with butter, on parchment, and place it on the parchment on a wire rack and in the oven with the grill mode on top heat. It turns out very thin and quickly, although it looks completely different, but the taste and crunch are very great. I think I'll also try sprinkling some seasoning before baking.

I continued the experiment by cutting the rolled sheet into strips before baking - it turned out more convenient and aesthetically pleasing. I tried sprinkling it with salt and seasonings before baking - here you have grissini
