I don't know what is it in Asian food that makes everyone like it, but I literally don't know a single person who would not like Asian food. This dish is not an exception either. With the chewy rice cakes and fragrant mushrooms, crunchy vegetables and delicious sauce, it quickly became the favorite of my whole family.
