Do you sometimes crave for certain food after watching TV especially food or cooking programmes? I made chicken and waffles the other day because I had a huge craving for fried chicken and crispy waffles after watching an episode of Junk Food Flip on Food Network. And after watching a Korean drama on Channel U recently, I told the husband I wanted to eat tteokbokki (Korean spicy rice cakes), haha. So I went to buy a pack of fresh Korean rice cakes from the supermarket but thought I would cook them Chinese-style – like making hor fun (Chinese flat rice noodles) with rice cakes instead. I had some leftover curry leaves after using it to make salted egg chicken so I added them into the rice cakes which gave a somewhat aromatic punch. The curry leaves are of course not necessary in this recipe so you can leave them out. For the proteins, you can also use chicken, prawns or squids – whatever you prefer. However if it’s seafood that you’re using, remember to add them only at the end as they take just a few minutes to cook.

There is no need to use any corn starch solution because the rice cakes would just thicken up the sauce while simmering. Enjoy!
