Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Gluten-free Korean rice cakes
- 3 tablespoons Gluten-free gochujang (Korean red chili paste)
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free tamari or soy sauce substitute
- 2 teaspoons Gochugaru (Korean red chili flakes)
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2 cups Water
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Soak the gluten-free Korean rice cakes in warm water for 15-20 minutes if they are hard or refrigerated, to make them pliable.
In a medium-sized pot or deep skillet, combine the gluten-free gochujang, gluten-free tamari, gochugaru, minced garlic, sugar, and water. Stir well to create the sauce base.
Bring the sauce to a gentle boil over medium heat and stir occasionally to ensure everything blends together.
Drain the soaked rice cakes and add them to the pot or skillet. Stir to coat them fully in the sauce.
Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice cakes become soft and chewy and the sauce thickens.
Add the sliced green onions during the last 2 minutes of cooking and mix well.
Drizzle the sesame oil on top, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and give everything a final stir to combine the flavors.
Serve hot and enjoy your gluten-free tteokbokki as a snack or a satisfying meal!
