Auntie Emilys Kitchen-Fried Radish Cake in XO Sauce2

Fried Radish Cake in XO Sauce "XO醬炒蘿蔔糕"

This recipe is an extension of my Steamed Radish Cake recipe.
Besides using XO sauce, you can consider using Chinese Barbeque Sauce (Sha cha) or any chili oil.
Dipping these crispy little bites in sesame sauce and/or hoisin sauce with sprinkles of sesame seeds and green onions would work for me!
My son wants to dip them in sour cream! Good thing we were out of sour cream. But I’m interested in giving that a try! You never know!
