10-MINUTE RICE CAKES

10-Minute Rice Cakes image

Growing up, I remember my dad making these for me every time we had leftover rice in the fridge. I generally make these for breakfast but occasionally enjoy them for dinner when my husband is out of town and I want to make something quick and easy. This recipe is a great base. Have fun changing it up and making it your own! Great topped with salsa!

RICE CAKES WITH PEANUT SAUCE AND HOISIN

Rice Cakes With Peanut Sauce and Hoisin image

This vegan dish is reminiscent of the classic Cantonese dim sum of fried cheung fun, or steamed rice noodle rolls, which is served with two contrasting sauces: a caramelly hoisin sauce and a nutty sesame sauce. In this recipe, tenaciously chewy rice cakes are stir-fried until crispy, then smothered in a sweet and earthy peanut sauce and finished with syrupy hoisin. Rice cakes deserve to be a pantry staple for many reasons: They can be used as a filling substitute for short pasta, added to stews or quickly pan-fried with your favorite sauce. Sold in Chinese or Korean markets, they come in tubes (like those used in tteokbokki) or sliced disks, and are packaged in vacuum-sealed packs or frozen, so they keep for ages. If you're looking for a suitable substitute, you could use fresh rice noodle rolls, or even gnocchi.

Ingredients

Kosher salt
2 pounds rice cake sticks or sliced rice cakes, fresh or frozen
2 tablespoons neutral oil such as vegetable or grapeseed
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 pound yu choy or other Asian greens, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, diluted with 1 teaspoon water
2 scallions, finely sliced
1 tablespoon toasted white sesame seeds
1/3 cup smooth peanut butter (natural or emulsified)
3 tablespoons hot water
1/2 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 garlic clove, grated
1 teaspoon soy sauce

Steps:

Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the rice cakes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until softened. Drain and refresh under cold water.
Meanwhile, make the peanut sauce: In a medium bowl, place the peanut butter, hot water, sugar, garlic and soy sauce, and whisk together until combined. Set aside.
Heat a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet or wok on medium high. (Check the drained rice cakes. If they are sticking together, rinse them with cold water and gently toss to separate before adding them to the pan.) When the pan is hot, add the neutral oil and rice cakes, and toss to combine. Add soy sauce and stir-fry for 6 to 8 minutes, until the rice cakes begin to caramelize. (If more than a few clump together, add a tablespoon of water at a time and break them up with your spatula.) Add the yu choy and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, until the greens are wilted. Turn off heat, add the peanut sauce and toss to coat.
To serve, drizzle with the diluted hoisin sauce, scatter with scallions and finish with sesame seeds.

SPICY KOREAN RICE CAKES (TTEOKBOKKI)

Spicy Korean Rice Cakes (Tteokbokki) image

This popular street-food dish, called tteokbokki, is a garlicky, richly spiced dish of rice cakes bathed in red chile paste. Tteokbokki (pronounced duck-bo-key) got its own festival, spinning off from the larger annual Seoul festival of rice cakes, or tteok.

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

8 ounces fresh or thawed frozen tteok (see note)
4 ounces beefsteak, such as chuck or sirloin, very thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, thinly sliced
2 cups green cabbage, cut crosswise into large pieces (optional)
1 to 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chile paste)
1 to 2 teaspoons sugar
2 scallions, cut into 1-inch batons
Sesame seeds

Steps:

Soak tteok in cold water to cover while preparing the other ingredients, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Combine beef with soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil and garlic.
Heat a wok or skillet over high heat until very hot. Add beef mixture and stir-fry just until lightly browned, 1 minute. Add onion, scallions, and cabbage, if using, and stir-fry until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
Add gochujang and mix. Add about 1/3 cup water, remaining teaspoon sesame oil, sugar and tteok. Mix and let simmer until sauce is thick and tteok is soft, adding water a little at a time as needed. Adjust seasonings with sugar and gochujang.
Mix in scallions and serve hot, sprinkled with sesame seeds.
