Cooked rice can be used in many ways. We can make pancake out of cooked rice by adding eggs to hold the rice together besides adding some vegetables and seasonings to make it flavourful. Rice can also be added when we are making meatballs; it acts the same way as breadcrumbs in that it can absorb the moisture in the meatballs and make them more firm. Rice can also be added with other ingredients to make casseroles. The most common use is, of course, to make fried rice of various types. Finally, we can bake the cooked rice to make it even more delicious.
