Ingredients
- 1 cup Rice flour
- 1/4 cup Tapioca starch
- 1 1/2 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegan egg substitute
- 4 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup Green onions
- 1/2 cup Pickled carrots and daikon
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Chili garlic sauce
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified. Source temperature equivalents could not be reconciled. Check the original instruction before cooking.
Instructions
- 1In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1 cup rice flour and 1/4 cup tapioca starch. Gradually whisk in the 1 1/2 cups water until the mixture is smooth. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
- 2Add the 2 tablespoons vegan egg substitute to the rested batter and whisk until fully combined.
- 3Heat 2 tablespoons of the 4 tablespoons vegetable oil in an approximately 25 cm non-stick skillet over medium heat, about 325°F (160°C). Once the oil is shimmering, pour in half of the batter, spreading it into an even layer.
- 4Cook the batter for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and firm to the touch. Carefully flip the cake using a spatula and cook the other side for another 5 to 7 minutes until golden brown and firm.
- 5Remove the cooked cake from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Cut the cake into about 2.5 cm squares. Repeat steps 3, 4, and 5 with the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and batter.
- 6While the cakes are cooking, prepare the dipping sauce. In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon chili garlic sauce. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
- 7In the same skillet used for the cakes, add the 1/2 cup green onions and 1/2 cup pickled carrots and daikon. Stir-fry over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes until the green onions are slightly wilted and fragrant. Add the cooked rice flour cakes to the skillet and gently toss to combine with the vegetables for 1 minute.
- 8Serve the Bột Chiên Chay immediately with the prepared dipping sauce on the side.
