Ingredients

1 cup short grain sticky rice
1 cup short grain rice
2 teaspoon salt adjust to your liking
2.5 cup water
1 L oil

Instructions

Mixed two types of rice, water and salt to a rice cooker. Cook until it is ready.
Transfer the rice to a container. Press the rice so they are firmly sticking together. Leave it in fridge over night.
Cut the rice to rectangles. Heat the oil and deep fry the rice cake until it is golden

Notes

Use both short-grain sticky rice and normal short-grain rice with a 1:1 ratio. Add a bit extra more water to make the rice more glutinous.

Wait till the oil is heated up then add the rice blocks so the crust forms quickly while keeping the inside moist. (Dip a chopstick into the oil. If the oil starts steadily bubbling, then the oil is hot enough for frying.)
