Recipe Ingredients

• 1 pound tteokbokki tteok, 떡볶이 떡 (about 24 3-inch long rice cake pieces) - See note.
• 1 sheet of eomuk 어묵 (fish cake - aka oden)
• 4 ounces green cabbage (yangbaechu, 양배추)
• 1 - 2 scallions
• 3 cups anchovy broth (or water)
• 3 tablespoons Korean red chili pepper paste (gochujang, 고추장)
• 1 - 3 teaspoons Korean red chili pepper flakes (gochugaru, 고추가루) - optional for extra heat
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 tablespoon corn syrup (or 1 more tablespoon sugar)
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)

Cooking Directions

• Make anchovy broth (see note). Soak the rice cakes for about 20 minutes if hardened or refrigerated. Cut the fish cake, cabbage, and scallions into about 2-inch long pieces.

                         

• Add the anchovy broth (or water) to a large pan. Stir in the sauce ingredients, except the sesame oil and optional sesame seeds. Bring it to a boil over medium high heat, stirring to dissolve the red chili pepper paste (gochujang).

                        

• Add the rice cakes. Boil until the rice cakes become very soft and the sauce is thickened, about 8 - 10 minutes. Stir frequently so the rice cakes don't stick to the bottom of the pan.

                        

• Add the vegetables and fish cakes. Continue to boil, stirring constantly, for an additional 4 - 6 minutes. Taste the sauce, and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add the sesame oil and optional sesame seeds right before turning the heat off. Serve immediately.

                       

• Tteokbokki doesn't reheat well in the microwave. Reheat any leftovers, along with a little bit of broth or water, in a small pan over low heat.
