 Tried making steamed rice cake today. It was just...there was oily water dripping out of the pot and set a tiny fire on one of the stove...and sent off the smoke detector...

But at least the cake tasted great...

Recipe:

Ingredients--rice flour 3 cups, brown sugar 1 1/2 cups, dried plum dices 80 g, water 5 cup, cooking oil 2 Tablespoons

Procedure: 

1. Mix rice flour with 2 cups of water, then add cooking oil

2. Put brown sugar and 3 cups of water into a pot. Set the pot over stove. Stir constantly till all the sugar dissolve

3.  Add the batter of Step 1 into the sugar water. Mix them well.

4. Grease a container and put a lay of dried plum dices on the bottom. Pour the batter in. Steam it over hot water for 45 minutes.

    Cooking is fun and downright tasty! I find making comfort foods from my youth to be a therapeutic and almost spiritual exercise.

    Rice cakes sound rather tasty...Bon appetite!

    Oh my, dont worry you will get the hang of it. Make sure that you have good friends who will let you know what they think of your dishes and whether or not you have to add that ingredient or something. Enjoy learning and remember, cooking is the simplest thing ever.
