Sliced Rice Cake for Hot Pot

Use sliced rice cake for hot pot for a satisfyingly chewy addition to Chinese hot pots and soups. The rice cake slices only need boiling for 2-3 minutes before they’re ready to eat.

Rice cake does not have much flavour on its own, so try cooking the rice cake directly in a stock, broth or soup so it absorbs other flavours.

The cooked rice cake slices also make a great light lunch. Instead of serving in a hot pot, serve plain with a flavourful dipping sauce of sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, red chilli, garlic and spring onion.
