Core Ingredients- 1 bowl of cooked rice
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- A pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Place the cooked rice in a bowl and gently loosen the grains with a little water. Drain thoroughly in a sieve; removing excess moisture is key to achieving a crispy texture.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the drained rice, grated Parmesan cheese, a pinch of salt, and 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Mix well until the rice grains are evenly coated with the cheese mixture. This ensures consistent flavor and crispiness.
Step 3
Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper and spread the seasoned rice mixture evenly in a thin layer. A thin layer is important for ensuring the nurungji cooks through and becomes crispy, rather than chewy or tough.
Step 4
Air fry at 170°C (340°F) for 20 minutes. Once the underside is golden brown, carefully flip the nurungji and continue to air fry for another 10 minutes until both sides are golden and crispy. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
