Nian Gao (年糕, Lunar New Year Cake) | Cooking with Mama Lin

Celebrate Lunar New Year with nian gao (年糕), a steamed rice cake made of glutinous rice flour and brown sugar. In Cantonese, it is pronounced neen go (or neen goh).

I like waiting a few days to cut into the cake and pan frying the slices to eat. The pan frying is a GAME CHANGER. I actually didn't enjoy eating nian gao as much until I discovered pan frying as a thing.
