Crispy Cabbage and Egg Fritters

Marinate Cabbage: Shred the cabbage and mix it with 1/3 tsp of salt. Let it marinate for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
Prepare Other Ingredients: While the cabbage is marinating, chop the green onion and chili peppers.
Mix Ingredients: After 10 minutes, squeeze out any excess water from the cabbage. In a large bowl, combine the marinated cabbage, green onion, chopped chili, cooked rice, black pepper, 1/4 tsp salt, chili powder, beaten eggs, and cornstarch. Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated.
Form Fritters: Heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Take a spoonful of the mixture and flatten it into a patty shape.
Fry Fritters: Place the patties in the skillet and fry until one side is golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and fry the other side until golden brown and crispy as well. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these fritters hot, with a side of dipping sauce such as soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, or a yogurt dip.
