Instructions
- Dice beef into small cubes. Transfer to a small bowl. Season beef with Marinade ingredients and set aside to marinate for 2-3 minutes.
- Then rinse rice cakes with cold water a few times to remove any starch. Strain and set aside.
- In a large pot on medium heat, heat vegetable oil and fry beef until browned.
- Pour in water (or stock). Cover and bring to a boil. Then reduce to medium-low heat for 15 minutes for a gentle boil. Skim off any scum for a clean broth. Season broth with soy sauce and chicken powder.
- Uncover and add in dumplings and rice cakes. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Cook until they float, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the soup off heat. Note: If using large dumplings, cook them 4 minutes earlier than the rice cake as they’ll take longer to cook.
- Optional Garnish: Separate egg yolks from egg whites in two separate bowls. Beat the egg yolks and egg whites separately. In a pan set on low medium heat, lightly grease it with oil and paper towel. Pour in yolk mixture and let it set into a thin pancake. Fry on both sides until cooked, a couple minutes in total. Repeat this for egg white mixture.Transfer egg yolk pancake to a cutting board. Roll up the pancake and slice thinly. Repeat the same with egg white pancake.
- Divide and serve the soup into large bowls. Garnish with cooked eggs strips, green onions, and gim. Feel free to season with a pinch of salt to taste if you'd like it saltier.
