Do you have leftover rice and do not know how to use it? Whether it's white rice or brown, don’t throw it away! Turn leftover rice into easy starter. You'll be surprised, because you won't even recognize it as leftovers. I made patties/dumplings using leftover rice and it turned out to be awesome.

·5 tbsp oil
·Salt if needed only as rice is cooked with salt
·1 tbsp finely chopped cilantro (dhaniya)
·1 tsp finely chopped curry leaves
·1 tbsp lime juice
