Pan Fried Rice Cakes

These delicious pan fried rice cakes are pretty much in repeat in our house. They are simple to make and taste delicious. They can be a great snack or can easily transform into dinner with added tuna salad, or baked salmon. It's better to use the leftover rice that's a day old, but we love it so ouch that I cook rice specially to make these rice cakes.
