Vegetarian Dish: Daikon Cake 素食:蘿蔔糕

Chinese New Year Vegetarian Festive Food – Vegetarian Daikon Cake

Ingredients (pic 1)
Daikon
Carrot
Rice flour
Wheat flour or corn starch (a bit) (note 1)
(a reference amount: weight ratio of daikon to rice flour approx 3:1)

Optional Ingredients (pic 1)
Dried Mushrooms (presoaked in water till soft)  
Mustard Tuber
Dried radish
Soya vegetarian sausage
Decorative Ingredients
Spring onions
Sesame
Seasonings
Salt
White Pepper Powder
Brown Sugar
Light Soy Sauce

Steps
1.      Skin daikon & carrot
2.      Grind the daikon & part of the carrot with a grater & mix
          them (note 2 & 3)  (pic 2 & 3)
3.      Dice the optional ingredients (pic 4)
4.      Stir fry the diced optional ingredients until done(note 4)   
          (pic 5)
5.      Mix the daikon water (the liquid released by the grinded
          daikon) with the rice flour and wheat flour to make a 
           batter
6.      Mildly heat the grinded daikon & carrot mix in a wok, then
          add in the batter & stir
7.      Add the seasonings to the mixture & stir
8.      Add the ingredients of step 5 to the mixture & stir 
9.    Pour the mixture into a greased cooking tray (pic 6)
10.    Steam the mixture for approx 40-45 mins (using a medium  
          size aluminum foil tray) after water boils(note 5)(pic 7)
11.    Sprinkle spring onion & sesame onto the surface of the 
          cake 
12.    Ready to serve (pic 8)
Note
1.      Using wheat starch or corn starch is optional. They are mainly for helping to firm the cake. It can be skipped or use at an amount approx 1/10 of rice flour
2.      In grinding white daikon, you can use any part (big or small ‘holes’) of the grater to produce different sizes of the grinded daikon. This in turn brings about various levels of texture for the cake
3.      Adding grinded carrot is also optional. It is just for adding a touch of beautiful color to the cake as well as adding the level of taste & texture
4.      The soya vegetarian sausage can be sliced & pan fried before dicing. The soy sausage slices will turn into a more attractive color & will be more tasty after pan frying
5.    The water in wok evaporates very fast, so add in hot water when needed. Also, as the steaming time varies with the size & material of the tray being used, as well as the actual amount of ingredients, the steaming time can be further adjusted according to individual’s situation
