Ingredients- 4 pieces frozen gara-tteok (Korean rice cake)
- 2 Tbsp honey
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Start by taking the frozen gara-tteok (Korean rice cakes) out of the freezer. Have them ready for cooking.
Step 2
Line your air fryer basket with parchment paper. Arrange the 4 pieces of frozen gara-tteok in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap. This helps ensure even cooking.
Step 3
Set your air fryer to 180°C (356°F) and set the cooking time for 10 minutes. The rice cakes will turn golden brown and slightly puffed up.
Step 4
Tip: When cooking from frozen, you might notice tiny cracks on the surface of the rice cakes. Don’t worry, this doesn’t affect the taste or texture negatively; in fact, it contributes to a wonderfully crispy finish! 😊
Step 5
Once the cooking cycle is complete, carefully remove the hot rice cakes from the air fryer. Be cautious to avoid burns; using tongs or oven mitts is recommended.
Step 6
Pour the 2 tablespoons of honey into a small dipping bowl. This will be your sweet sauce for the rice cakes.
Step 7
Dip the warm, freshly grilled rice cakes into the honey and enjoy immediately! The sweetness of the honey perfectly complements the chewy texture of the rice cakes.
Step 8
The result is a delightful treat with a crispy exterior that gives way to a soft, chewy inside. Dipping them in honey creates a delightful sweetness that makes them utterly irresistible. Truly a fantastic snack! 👍
