Korean Rice Cakes in A Sweet Ginger Garlic Sauce

Korean Rice Cakes are a food item that I only discovered recently. They are kind of chewy and can be used in soups or pot pie to add some texture to a dish.





Ingredients

1 500 gram package Korean Rice Cakes, I used the sliced variety
1 large carrot grated, about a cup
2 green onions, chopped for garnish
Cooked rice, for serving

Blender Ingredients

2 1/2 piece fresh ginger, peeled
1 clove garlic, minced
3 Tblsp soy sauce
2 Tblsp rice vinegar
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 cup DATE PASTE , or brown sugar to taste
1 1/4 cups water

Directions

Place all  blender ingredients into the blender and mix until smooth. Transfer to a pot

Add carrot and rinsed rice cakes.

Bring to a boil and simmer for about 15 minutes, until rice cakes are tender, but chewy.

Serve over cooked rice and garnish with green onion.

Enjoy!
