You're right, this one is HK style type. I should call this 萝卜丝糕. Because I added a lot of 萝卜丝 in it.
Hi Rachel,
I had an experienced before that if I did not pan fry the radish cake, it will becomes mouldy in about 3 days. So, it is better to pan fry it first.
I'm not sure about keeping it in the freezer…sorry…
Yummy! I believe this is HK style, my mum makes one don't have lak cheong.
My family like steamed radish cake, but i always too lazy to make it..
Do you think is it ok to freeze for the leave over in case we can not finish?
