Ingredients
- 2 cups Daikon radish
- 1 cup Rice flour
- 1/2 cup Shiitake mushrooms
- 1 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp White pepper
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 1 tbsp Chili sauce
Steps
- Grate the daikon and simmer it in its own juices 10 minutes until translucent and tender.
- Whisk the rice flour with 1 cup water, soy sauce, and white pepper into a smooth slurry.
- Stir the slurry into the hot daikon with the diced shiitake; it thickens into a paste.
- Scrape into an oiled loaf pan and steam over boiling water 30 minutes until firm and set.
- Cool completely, then chill 1 hour; cold cake slices cleanly.
- Cut into 1/2-inch slabs and pan-fry in sesame oil 3 minutes per side until crisp and golden.
- Serve hot with chili sauce and sliced scallions if you like.
