Posted by request. I serve these as an antipasto and they're also great as a snack. There may appear to be a number of steps to follow but they really are quite easy to make. Can be made gluten free.

These rice croquettes were delicious! The cheese filling was creamy and flavorful, and the rice was cooked perfectly. I served them with a side of roasted vegetables, and it was a healthy and satisfying meal.

These rice croquettes were a bit more work than I expected, but they were worth it. The filling was delicious, and the croquettes were crispy and golden brown. I served them with a side of arugula salad, and it was a lovely meal.
