- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 medium onion (or 1 small onion)

- 1 Tbsp butter (optional)
- 2 Tbsp cooking oil
Seasoning- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- Pinch of salt

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Before you begin cooking, please prepare all the necessary ingredients. You can adjust the amount of onion based on its size. Butter adds a wonderful richness, but it’s okay to omit if you don’t have it.
Step 2
Rinse the rice cakes in a colander and soak them in warm water for about 10 minutes. This will soften the rice cakes, preventing them from breaking when stir-fried and ensuring a tender texture.
Step 3
Wash the chives thoroughly, then finely chop them into pieces about 1cm long. The fresh aroma of chives will add a wonderful flavor to your egg and rice cake stir-fry.
Step 4
Peel the onion and slice it into rounds about 0.5cm thick. Be careful not to slice them too thinly, as they can burn quickly during stir-frying.
Step 5
In a bowl, crack the 2 eggs and add about two pinches of salt. Whisk them well with a fork or whisk to create the egg mixture.
Step 6
Add the pre-chopped chives to the egg mixture and gently combine. The green color of the chives will beautifully disperse throughout the egg.
Step 7
Heat a pan over medium heat. Add 1 Tbsp of butter and 2 Tbsp of cooking oil, and wait for the butter to melt. The rich aroma of the butter will stimulate your appetite.
Step 8
Add the sliced onions to the pan, and lightly season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry over medium heat for about 2 minutes until the onions become translucent and fragrant.
Step 9
Add the softened rice cakes to the pan and stir-fry with the onions over medium heat for about 3 minutes. It’s a good idea to stir occasionally to prevent the rice cakes from sticking to the pan.
Step 10
Once the rice cakes and onions are nicely browned and fragrant, they are ready for the next step. This process slightly crisps the outside of the rice cakes, making them even more delicious.
Step 11
Pour the egg mixture with chives evenly over the stir-fried rice cakes and onions. Gently tilt the pan to ensure the egg mixture spreads out. Immediately reduce the heat to low.
Step 12
Cover the pan with a lid and let it cook on low heat for about 2 minutes, or until the egg is set. When you lift the lid, you’ll see the softly cooked egg.
Step 13
Remove the lid and gently stir-fry the rice cakes and egg together once more. This ensures all the ingredients are well combined, completing your super simple and nutritious snack, the Egg and Rice Cake Stir-fry! Enjoy your meal~♡♡♡
