Ingredients
-
400g Chilgab Rice cake, tteokbokki (baton shaped rice cakes)
-
4 tsp Tower gochugaru Red Pepper Powder
-
1 Tbs Sajo Gochujang
-
1 Tbs+1/2 tsp Sajo soy sauce
-
1 Tbs Ottogi sesame oil Original
-
1/8 tsp black pepper
-
1/4 tsp garlic powder
-
1 Tbs green onions, chopped (optional)
-
1 Tbs sugar
Directions
Open rice cakes thawed or refrigerated, boil some water in a deep pan. Water should be enough to mostly cover rice cakes. Quickly boil rice cakes until they become fully soft – about 2 minutes.
Drain cooked rice cakes. Empty out water from the pan (this way you don’t use 2 pans).
Make sauce by mixing gochugaru, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, garlic powder and black pepper.
Toss rice cakes in sauce until each tteok is well coated.
Warm up a saute pan on medium heat and slowly saute the rice cakes for 5 minutes, turning tteok to avoid burning.≪This sauce will burn easily, so do not cook at high heat!≫
Serve with some chopped green onions on top.
