Instructions
Make the spicy gochujang sauce:
- In a small saucepan, combine gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, rice vinegar, rice syrup, sesame oil, brown sugar, and garlic.
- Give it a stir, and bring to a boil.
- Once thickened, remove from heat and set aside.
If using frozen/refrigerated rice cakes:
- Bring a pot of water up to a boil.
- Add in the rice cakes and blanch for about 30 seconds, until slightly softened.
- Drain the rice cakes and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
If using fresh rice cakes, skip the above:
- Skewer a few rice cakes onto a wooden or bamboo skewer.
- Repeat with the remaining skewers.
- Note: depending on how long your skewers are, you can adjust the amount of rice cakes.
- Preheat a grill or pan-fry over medium-high heat.
- Lightly oil the grill or pan.
- Place the skewers onto the grill/pan and cook for 4-5 minutes per side (flipping halfway through), or until slightly charred and the rice cakes puff up and get slightly crisp.
- Remove from the grill/pan and brush the gochujang sauce on both sides of the rice cake skewers.
- Garnish with parsley, scallions, sesame seeds, or crushed peanuts.
- Enjoy immediately.
