Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rice Cake

    In a mixing bowl, combine sweet rice flour and water. Stir until smooth. Pour the mixture into a greased steaming tray and steam for about 30 minutes until the mixture is firm and cooked through. Allow it to cool, then cut into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Make the Sauce

    In a separate bowl, mix coconut cream and gochujang until well combined. Adjust the spice level according to your taste.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a skillet, sauté garlic scapes, carrots, napa cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, and daikon over medium heat until they are just tender. Add wilting greens at the end to keep them vibrant.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Combine and Serve

    In a large bowl, toss the rice cake pieces with the sautéed vegetables and the coconut-gochujang sauce. Serve topped with crushed peanuts and crispy black bracken, if using.
