Step 1

In a microwave safe glass bowl. Take rice flour, salt and give a good mix so the salt is evenly combined. Pour in the hot water and mix gently so the rice flour is well mixed with the water. It should resemble crumbly texture, add water slowly little at a time when mixing else it get too wet.

Step 2

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, leave a small gap in the side of the bowl for the rice flour to steam. Place the bowl in microwave and cook on high for 2 minutes. After 2 minutes remove the bowl carefully from the microwave since it will be very hot. Give the rice flour a good mix using a spatula, you can sprinkle some water at this point if the mix is too dry. Cover it again with plastic wrap leaving a small gap in the end. Place it back into the microwave and cook for 2 more minutes.

Step 3

Once the rice cake mix is cooked. Remove it to a greased silicon mat. I drizzled some sesame oil. Transfer the rice flour mix into the mat and start pounding using a masher or pestle. Keep pounding till it starts to come together. Now i like to knead the dough, sprinkle some extra hot water if the rice flour mix is little dry and hard. Knead it using your hands till it is soft and smooth. It will be easy to kneading using hands.

Step 4

Once the dough is soft. Divide it into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a rope like. Cut the ends off and cut into desired height. Coat it with some sesame oil so nothing sticks to each other. You can store this in ziploc bag in fridge or freezer.
