Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound Korean rice cakes if using frozen, soak in cold water for 1 hour - fresh can be used straight from the package, cylinder-shaped
  • 4 ounces fish cake eomuk, cut into bite-sized pieces (optional - soaked if needed, check packaging for proper preparation, Korean style
  • 2 cups water for more flavor, use chicken stock, vegetable stock, or dashi
  • 1/3 cup gochujang Korean hot pepper paste
  • 1 tablespoon gochugaru Korean red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • egg soft boiled, for serving if desired

Instructions

  1. If using frozen rice cakes and/or fish cakes, soak for 10 minutes or longer (up to 1 hour) in cold water to soften.
  2. Bring the water or stock to a boil in a pot. Add the gochujang, gochugaru, sugar, garlic, soy sauce, and fish cakes. Stir to combine.
  3. Bring back to a boil, then add the rice cakes. Cook for 10 minutes, or until the rice cakes are soft but still chewy. The sauce should thicken enough to coat the rice noodles.
  4. Serve into bowls with optional soft boiled eggs and your favorite garnish (fresh chopped herbs or green onion, chili flakes).
