Where to Find Veggie Rice Balls Ingredients in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Veggie Rice Balls is quite a simple and easy recipe, requiring only two ingredients. To make Veggie Rice Balls, you’ll need to have 1x Hylian Rice and 1x of any herb, flower, or vegetable Material in your inventory.

Hylian Rice can be obtained by cutting down long grass with a melee weapon and can be discovered by doing so throughout a large portion of the Hyrule map. Alternatively, you can also choose to purchase Hylian Rice for 12 Rupees a piece at the General Goods Stores at Lookout LandingHaterno Village, and Zora’s Domain. If you need some extra help, then feel free to check out our guide on the best locations to farm Hylian Rice.

There’s a variety of different Materials you can use for the second component of the dish, with some of them adding extra bonus conditions and effects to the dish, such as Stamina boosts, Cold Resistance, or Stealth boosts. If you’re stuck trying to decide on a second component, a few examples that work are Hyrule Herb, Stambulb, Sundelion, and Silent Princess.

How to Make Veggie Rice Balls Recipe in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

To make the Veggie Rice Balls recipe in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you will need access to a functioning Cooking Pot, as well as the following Materials:

  • 1x Hylian Rice
  •  1x Any vegetable, herb, or flower

If you’re out and about in the land of Hyrule, you may be able to find a Cooking Pot in several camp areas or shelter destinations. Alternatively, you can also create one for yourself by igniting a bundle of Wood to create a campfire and then placing a Zonai Pot on top. If you’re struggling to find a suitable cooking area, then Lookout Landing’s underground bunker has a Cooking Pot that you can use as you’d like.

Once you’re all set up at your Cooking Pot, press the + button on your Joy-con or controller to open Link’s inventory, and then scroll across to the Materials tab. Now select and hold your ingredients (in my case I’ve gone for 1x Hyrule Herb and 1x Hylian Rice), and back out of the menu.

Walk in front of the Cooking Pot and press A once the ‘cook’ promo appears to drop your ingredients inside and create the dish. Now all you’ll need to do is sit back and wait a few seconds while the dish cooks and you’ll have a tasty meal for Link in no time!

After waiting a few seconds, the dish will be complete, and you will receive 1x Veggie Rice Balls to add to your inventory. You can also feel free to experiment with creating variants of this dish by replacing the second component of the dish. For example, replacing the plain Hyrule Herb with a Sundelion will result in the creation of a Sunny Veggie Rice Balls dish.
