This daikon oroshi mochi is a delicious snack made with chewy mochi rice cakes topped with refreshing grated daikon. If you're a fan of Japanese flavors, you will love this!
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Place the mochi pieces onto the pan and cook for 3 minutes or until slightly golden brown.
Flip the mochi pieces over to cook the other side for 3 minutes and make sure the inside is soft.
Peel the daikon, grate it using a fine grater, and season with soy sauce to taste.
Place the daikon oroshi on the yaki mochi and sprinkle with chopped scallions if desired.
Notes
Mochi should be enjoyed with caution as a potential choking hazard, especially for the elderly and small children. Cut the mochi into small pieces and chew very well when eating.
Serve immediately. If mochi is left out for too long, it can become dry and lose its soft texture.
You can use a grill pan, toaster oven, regular oven, or microwave for cooking mochi. See "Various Ways To Cook Mochi" for more information.
If your daikon oroshi contains too much water, gently squeeze out any excess moisture using a fine strainer.
When seasoning daikon oroshi with soy sauce, start with a little soy sauce and add more as needed, being careful not to make the daikon too salty.
