Instructions
- Mix the water and corn starch together in as mall bowl until there are no lumps.
- Heat over medium to low heat your oil in a medium size pot. Add black bean paste and sauté for 1 minute.
- Add your finely chopped onion and green onions. Lightly fry for 1 minute.
- Add fish balls and fish cakes. Stir everything until it is covered in the sauce.
- Place the water and corn starch mixture into the pot. Mix well together. Bring to boil and then reduce to simmer for 5 minutes uncovered (or until the sauce thickens). Stir occasionally.
- Taste the sauce and season with sugar and salt to your liking.
- Add rice cakes to the pot and mix into the sauce. Simmer the mixture for 5 minutes or until the rice cakes have become tender (soft but chewy).
- Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds and extra green (spring) onions if you wish.
Notes
- It’s important to stir the mixture to prevent the rice cakes from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- If you are using frozen rice cakes, bring them to room temperature before cooking. You can do this by submerging them in warm water. Likewise, if you are using dry Korean rice cakes, submerge them in water to allow them to soften.
