I made and ate Tteokbokki 떡볶이 for the very first time! Thank you everyone for your cooking suggestions. So far, I made 김밥 , 미역국 , 계란말이, 가래떡 too. I'm looking forward to learn more and improve the recipes I already tried. Watch out! I'm on my way to become Baek Jong-won! ㅋㅋㅋ If you know a good vegetarian recipe, please share it. Here is the one I used: Ingredients: 🍲2 and 1/2 cups of vegetable broth 🍚500 g Korean rice cakes 가래떡 🫛100 g green string beans 🧅2 spring onions 🧄2 cloves of garlic 🌶️2 tbsp gochujang paste 🌱2 tbsp sesame seeds ◻️1 Tbsp cane sugar ◼️1 tbsp soy sauce 🧂salt 🧂freshly ground black pepper -Rinse the rice cakes (가래떡) in cold water. -Dice the spring onions and chop the garlic. (I should probably do it finer, to be honest). -Bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Add gochujang paste, cane sugar, soy sauce, string beans, garlic and spring onions. -Season with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly. -Add the rice cakes. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cook for about 8 minutes. During this time, the 가래떡 should soften and the sauce should reduce and become thick. -Serve sprinkled with sesame seeds for dinner or lunch. Enjoy!
