Rinse the rice cakes in water and blanch them in boiling water for 2–3 minutes until softened.

Drain the blanched rice cakes using a colander and let them cool slightly.

Cut the bacon strips in half lengthwise.

Place a rice cake on each bacon strip and roll tightly.

Place the bacon rolls seam-side down in a pan and cook over medium-low heat until crispy.

Skewer the cooked bacon rolls onto bamboo sticks for easy serving.
