Instructions

  1. Step 1

    If rice cakes are frozen or stuck, soak in warm water 5 minutes until pliable. Drain well.

  2. Step 2

    Mix soy sauce, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside.

  3. Step 3

    Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or 12-inch skillet over high heat until it shimmers, ~60 seconds.

  4. Step 4

    Add rice cakes in a single layer. Cook undisturbed 2 minutes until edges brown slightly.

  5. Step 5

    Stir and cook 1 minute more, breaking up any clumps. Transfer to a plate.

  6. Step 6

    Add remaining 2 tbsp oil. Cook bell pepper strips, stirring, until edges soften, ~2 minutes.

  7. Step 7

    Return rice cakes to the wok. Pour soy-ginger mixture over and toss for 1 minute until coated.

  8. Step 8

    Add green onions and sesame oil. Toss for 30 seconds until fragrant and onions wilt slightly.

    Serve immediately while rice cakes are still warm and chewy.
