Again this is done with leftover rice. While I was watching sushi preparation I got this idea and tried it. It has different textures with Crispy peanut, soft paneer, and rice adds another texture. This dish can be done with different stuffing like paneer, cheese, chicken fish different roasted vegetable sticks. Here I have shown it with paneer and also with chicken sausage. This is quiet a filling snack perfect for kids returning from school. It will be also a new addition for your party. Do all the preparation well ahead and store it to fry just before serving.
