PARMESAN EGYPTIAN RICE KOFTAS
Rice kofta is one of the most popular delight in Egypt ... My mother in law thaught me this yummy recipe some years ago ... it is a mixture between , minced meat , cilantro , rice flour, parsley , onion and dill . All of them blended , then , we make koftas from this mixture and we fry. Immersed in a tomato sauce , this kofta is usally served with rice . So , Decided today to mixing between the Egyptian and Italian cuisine, and based on the famous Chicken Parmesan recipe .. why not to try a Parmesan Egyptian rice kofta .. with a savory basil sauce ???? here we go !!!!!!!!!!!
