TTEOKBOKKI (SPICY RICE CAKES)


 Korean tteokbokki recipe. 

Tteokbokki (Spicy Rice Cakes) - My Korean Kitchen

is one of the most popular Korean street foods in Korea. Among other things, today’s recipe is made with Korean rice cakes, Korean fish cakes, Korean soup stock / dashi stock and gochujang (Korean chili paste)!
It’s super delicious, umami rich and highly addictive! So much so that even if your tummy is full, you will still have some room for these spicy rice cakes! 😉

Tteokbokki / Ddeokbokki / Dukbokki (떡볶이) is definitely one of my favorite foods. It has all the elements to be liked. The texture, the sauce and the easiness! ❤️
Also, it comes in almost endless variations. As an example, I already shared three other tteokbokki recipes on my website. So here they are in case you need more choices!

No fuss super easy tteokbokki – This version does not use Korean soup stock/dashi stock. It means two things. Less steps involved, so it’s easier & faster. But it may lack depth of flavor because it’s cooked with water instead of the soup stock. (It’s still delicious though!) So it’s a great recipe when you need a quick tteokbokki fix. Also, some people commented that they like this recipe, because the sauce is not too soupy. It’s cooked like rice cake stir fry. [Check out the recipe – Easy Spicy Rice Cakes]
Non-spicy tteokbokki / Soy sauce tteokbokki / Ganjang tteokbokki – If you don’t handle spicy food very well or at all, this might be a

In my mind, today’s recipe is prepared in a more traditional way. When I say traditional, many Koreans make tteokbokki this way. Using Korean soup stock / dashi stock.

One thing I really like about today’s recipe is that it’s saucy. I know some people don’t like this style but I do! So if you cooked other dishes (e.g. pan fried Korean dumplings or Korean style tempura) along with this tteokbokki, you can dip them into the sauce and eat them.

Wondering what’s the whole point of this? Well, nothing really. It’s just how Koreans like to eat Tteokbokki. With lots of pan fried / deep fried dishes! When these are mingled with tteokbokki sauce, they just taste even better!

Anyway, I hope you give this recipe a try and let me know how you go! Enjoy!

P.S. These are great companion dishes you can serve with tteokbokki. Korean fish cake soup and Deep fried seaweed rolls

HOW TO MAKE TTEOKBOKKI

1. Unless your rice cakes are soft already, soak them in warm water for 10 mins.

2. Boil the soup stock in a shallow pot over medium high heat and dissolve the tteokbokki sauce by stirring it with a spatula. Once the seasoned stock is boiling, add the rice cakes, fish cakes and onion. Boil them a further 3 to 5 mins until the rice cakes are fully cooked.  Then, to thicken the sauce and to deepen the flavor, simmer it over low heat for a further 2 to 4 mins.

HOW TO STORE TTEOKBOKKI
Leftover tteokbokki can be refrigerated for a day or two. When reheating, add some spare soup stock or water. Though it won’t be as saucy as the first time.
