Recipe: Stir fried savoury rice cake (Vegetarian)
Hi guys, how's your Chinese New Year celebrations going so far? Usually on the first day of CNY, we will have vegetarian food for the whole day.
In the afternoon, we will usually cook a more elaborate meal with 5-6 courses, but for dinner, we usually keep it simple with a vegetarian noodle dish. For past two years, I made this Stir fried savoury rice cake (nian gao) for my family and they thoroughly enjoyed it. Also perfect after many days of CNY feasting, when you're craving for something lighter.
