Step 1
If using firm rice cakes, soak in warm water for 10 minutes to soften; if using fresh, skip this step. Pat dry with paper towels.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the rice cakes in a single layer and cook until golden brown and crispy on the bottom, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 3
Flip the rice cakes and cook the other side until golden and slightly puffed, another 3-4 minutes. They should be crispy outside but still chewy inside.
Step 4
Reduce heat to low. Add 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp sesame oil, tossing to coat the rice cakes evenly. Cook for 1 minute until the sauce is absorbed and glossy.
Step 5
Remove from heat and sprinkle with sliced green onions. Serve hot as a snack or side dish.
