Ingredients for Puffy Rice Cakes- 200g dry non-glutinous rice flour
- 200g water
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- Red bean paste (to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In your bread maker, combine the dry rice flour, water, salt, and sugar. Use the dough setting specifically designed for making dough, ensuring it’s suitable for rice cake dough.
Step 2
Once the dough cycle is complete, carefully remove the dough from the bread maker. Divide the dough into equal portions. Roll each portion thinly using a rolling pin, then place your desired amount of red bean paste in the center.
Step 3
Carefully fold the dough over the red bean paste to enclose it, shaping it into a semi-circular or crescent moon shape. Then, use a round cup or mold to press and cut out the Baram Tteok, creating neat shapes.
Step 4
After shaping, you can either steam the Baram Tteok or lightly pan-fry them over low heat until the surface is slightly dry (choose your preferred method). Once prepared, use a brush to gently coat both sides of the Baram Tteok with sesame oil for an added glossy finish and a rich, nutty aroma.
Step 5
Arrange the beautifully made Baram Tteok on a serving plate. You now have delicious, chewy red bean paste filled Puffy Rice Cakes, perfect as a delightful snack for children or a special treat for any occasion!
