Ingredients
- 400 grams gluten-free tteokbokki rice cakes
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean red chili paste, gluten-free)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup water
- 2 stalks scallions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Soak the gluten-free tteokbokki rice cakes in warm water for 10 minutes to soften them.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the gluten-free soy sauce, gochujang, minced garlic, sesame oil, sugar, and optional red pepper flakes to create the sauce.
Step 3
Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Step 4
Drain the rice cakes and add them to the frying pan. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until they start getting lightly crispy on the outside.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and pour the sauce mixture over the rice cakes. Stir well to coat each piece.
Step 6
Add 1 cup of water to the pan, bring to a simmer, and let it cook for about 10 minutes until the sauce thickens and the rice cakes become tender.
Step 7
Stir in the sliced scallions just before removing the pan from the heat.
Step 8
Transfer to a serving plate, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve hot.
